Dream Valley Challenges

Hi Folks
This is my second post for today.   Lucky you.....
Today sees the start of a new fortnightly challenge at Dream Valley Challenges.
The theme for this challenge is 'Just For Men'.   That's right, create a project with the men and boys in mind.
Our sponsor for this challenge is Bugaboo Digi Stamps.

Our lucky winner will receive a fubulous gift certificate to spend in their store.
The design team were lucky enough to get some fab images to use on their projects this time around.
Here is what I created.
Apologies for the quality of the photo.  It is a bit blurry......  This is such a fab little image and really made me smile.  I simply die cut the image and coloured with promarkers.  The papers used were from my stash and were some freebie papers from Making Cards magazine many months ago.  If you look very carefully the blue backing paper has palm trees printed on it.

Do hope you will pop over to Dream Valley Challenges and check out the awesome work of the rest of the design team.  Don't forget that you have two weeks to enter and it doesn't have to be a card.  It can be any project as long as it fits the theme.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Sweet Sketch Wednesday - use sketch
Allsorts - Anything goes
Creative Card Crew - masculine
One Stitch At A Time - Digi or don't

Thanks for popping by and hope to see you again soon.
