I won this image from 2 Red Bananas. He's called "Skater Jack". I wanted to do something different with this card because I felt like I was using embossing on EVERYTHING so this time, I didn't use any. It's pretty plain but I think the image is so cute it still makes for a nice card (at least I hope so anyway!) AND it's a rare boy-themed card. No embossing, no ribbon....that means I can use it for the Die Cuts R Us challenge this week which is to make a boy-themed card. And that bow in the corner...no it's not ribbon, it's a very boyish twine so I am using this for the Creative Belli Blog challenge which is to use twine or raffia on your card.
