It's been a great week - I'm almost on target for the week. Hopefully the shower and dishwasher will be fixed soon. You know, I managed years without a dishwasher and now I appreciate just how much time and effort is saved in having one. Can you tell I hate washing up?!
Kathy has set the challenge this week for the Daring Cardmakers and it's a really good one! So you use black and white and add a pop of any other other colour. Fun, right?!
I decided to go for a male theme on this one and make a card for my Dad whose birthday is coming up. I used orange for my 'pop' colour. That happened after I chose the sentiment 'Top Guy' for my card. It's a sentiment from a set I bought in Craftwork Cards sale. I love their sentiments - something for everyone!
I used an old paper pad from DCWV which had the diamond pattern and I die cut circles and the letters for DAD. To embellish I used washi tape, ribbon and enamel dots.
I hope you have a good weekend whatever you're up to. We've got another busy one - of course, it's the boys and their social life but after the Christmas holidays we've had they deserve it!
See you next week!

Love it! That orange really zings, doesn't it? Makes a perfect masculine card - why do so many men like the colour orange?
