Our very good friend lost his mother this week, so I wanted to make a sympathy card. I'd had these square paint chips sitting on my craft table for ages and I guess I finally found a good use for them.

Karen, you'll like this card I made for Chris's birthday. Do you know why? I often find it hard to make masculine cards, but this one just came together. It was a bit time-consuming, but I think the end result is way worth it.

I'm on a roll, so I think I'll head back to the craft table and see what other gems I might be able to crank out today. But I had to share what I'd accomplished so far today.
