For the first Challenge on the Cards for Men blog
its a Christmas theme
For my card I used some 6x6 striped paper I had in my stash
Cut it in half and stuck it at the top and bottom of plain white card stock
I used some shiny red tape I have as the edges needed something
The image in one of my new Stamps called DANGER MEN
Coloured using my Letraset Tria Markers
and then mounted on some red glitter card
Great Challenge
