It's a great one, isn't it? So, in looking at my stamp sets....the Going Global set really called out to me and a masculine card was the result, take a look...
Claire's sketch was perfect for combining papers from the Going Places designer series paper stack. And with the Going Global stamp set it was a natural combination. I kept the colors neutral--Basic Black and Sahara Sand--with just a pop of a Real Red heart.
It's a really simple card--I let the papers do the work--and with the masculine look, I held back on any embellishments. I did add a little extra dimension by fussing cutting a second compass.
