It's a male friend's 60th Birthday on Monday and as he loves gardening, and sitting in the garden I decided to use this great Popcorn image. I do love these images but they are rather big. Luckily I had a green 5" x 7" card in stock otherwise there wouldn't have been room for any embellishment at all. The lovely owl paper is Papermania sweet nothings and I added some green leaf brads to the image. I thought I could get away with a flower on the card as it is a gardening card and the flower is brown and green, so not girly. I don't know why we shy away from putting flowers on men's cards though as most men like flowers too, especially gardeners. I used another one of my new ticket sentiments from Alissa Designs. I really do love them.
This card is for the colour challenge of cinnamon, lime and berry at Winter Wonderland. I'm so glad their challenge is going all year, but it isn't just Christmas cards now.
