card for Ian for Christmas :o)

Papers: scraps of Salt n Pepper by funky hand

Celebrate sentiment: SU

Sentiment: See D set

Thought it was about time I made a card for the old man!! Bless him he's not keen on cutesy stuff so thought I would go for just a sentiment type. Loved the sketch from this months Get Funky Challenge so went with it. Polka Doodles theme last week was Its all about the sentiment so hey presto two challenges filled :o)

Glad to say the card has gone down well and I got a "great card" which from Ian is high praise indeed lol
