Hee hee... so true!


When I had my little spend at Elzybells, I spotted this sentiment stamp and immediately thought of this washing line stamp from Little Claire.  I think it makes a fun Christmas card for men, and I've kept it fairly simple because I'm going to make a few of them.  I stamped the image and then stamped it again, coloured in with promarkers and cut out the boxer shorts, then shaped them with an embossing tool and covered them with glossy accents.  The pic below shows the effect a bit better.


The papers are Dovecraft, with Bazzill cardstock, the snowflakes were cut with a MS punch and I added some card candy to finish.

I'm entering my card for the following challenges:
