OLD TIME FOOTBALLER

Hi Everyone!!
Not a good day all in all :o( - I spent all morning at the hospital re: my ears .... again..... still not sorted out - getting very frustrated now!! Came home got ready for a 1:1 Cricut Class at In2crafting, got all set up and they didn't turn up!!! I waited for 2 hours!! Oh well such is life I suppose - but very annoying!
Anyway .... I'm on card no. 4 out of 5 for father's day - this one is for my father-in-law from my children - I bought this stamp set a while ago and have never used it - it is the "Flippin Men" range which has a front and back image of a footballer, a border of boots/balls and a couple of sentiments - I decided to do some different colouring this time using only the "Warm Grey" range of promarkers to give is an old fashioned sepia feel (the warm grey collection is a browny/grey), I then stamped and punched out 3 borders to follow the Passion for Promarkers sketch - the sentiment is computer generated and punched out. I am quite pleased with the effect - what do you think????
The Challenges I am entering are:
Incy Wincy Designs - One for the Guys
Passion for Promarkers - Sketch and Male Theme
Creative Inspirations - One for the Boys

Lots of Love

    Great card, loving that image and the shades of grey give it an "old" feel!

    Sorry to hear about your bad day, hope they have a good excuse why they didn't turn up???!!!
