I may have gone a tad overboard with hardware on this card, but whenever I pull these sprocket dies out, my brain just takes me to all the metal in my stash. This card is for Speedy the Cat's Friends challenge #63 to use a die cut as a background mat. I chose the top note die to use as my mat, and after I cut it, I embossed it with the Clockworks ef. The sprockets were all die cut with scraps of colorful card stock, and the white card stock was stamped with the retired flannel backgrounder stamp using Desert Sand ink. The sentiment is by MFP and cut with a ticket punch. A scrap of turquoise twill was used on the doo-dad on the sentiment panel. There's no doubt that this is a masculine card, so I'm also entering this into Sandy's blogaversary challenge to share our masculine/unisex cards.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're enjoying your day!
