Happy Monday, Stampers ... hope your weekend was fabulousness!
Today's card project was created for SCS's "Clean and Simple" challenge, CAS28, to create a masculine card. What's more masculine than flannel, I axe you? For all the challenging deets, clicky HERE. To go straight to the CAS28 card gallery, clicky HERE. For the ginormous view of my card, clicky on the photo.
I stamped my flannel background in Soft Suede ink, tied on some weird cotton trim I found in my stash, then stamped my sentiment, cut it out with a Nesties die, matted it on Soft Suede card stock, then mounted the whole shebang on the card base using foam tape.
For the rest of the warm and fuzzy product info, check out the supply list, below.

Soooooooo, this weekend, I went on my semi-annual trip to Publix-Where-Shopping-Is-A-Pleasure-But-Where-There-Are-No-Shopping-Carts.
As I was walking out to my car, people were lining up to get my noisy and wobbly grocery cart.
After I unloaded the cart, I offered it to the first person in line, explaining, "it wobbles like crazy and it makes an awful racket, but it works."
"That's okay," the nice lady said, taking it. "I have a husband at home like that."
Hey! Me too!!

Deb,
I LOVE the flannel! Is that a background stamp? It's wonderful!!! Your card is a winner, for sure! So is your story about the shopping cart! I had a funny yesterday about a shopping cart, too. The clerk was rounding them up right by my car, so as I unloaded the last of my things into my car, I turned to hand it over to her and asked, do you want me to just add it to the row? She answered, "no, if you push on them they move forward". REALLY??? I never KNEW that!!!
Love all the texture here and such a great color palette!
You're an SU demo??? How cool!!! Love this card. That twine ribbon thingy is too cool.
Super masculine card and love your background and use of the string/twine or whatever that is. Very nice. Pat
Gorgeous card, Deb! Love the flanel background stamp! Love what you did with the cotton string too!
