Here is Heather's sketch
And here is my card.

For this card I used a terracotta cs for the background and you can't see it but I embossed it with a diamond cuttlebug folder. All the other papers used are from the new SU catalogue and it's a designer paper called Spiced Cider. The photo doesn't do it justice , they really are great colours for a masculine card. The image is called Matthew with present and he has been coloured with promarkers. The sentiment is also from the Whiff of Joy collection. I didn't want to use the blooms like the sketch as it felt too feminine but I did add some brown and cream brads.

Love all the layering and stitching and all the patterned cardstock work so well together. Warm regards
