Three Waistcoats

I'm really enjoying the challenges on the Less is More blog and when I saw that this week's theme is 'masculine', I immediately thought of this stamp.  It's made by a firm called Inkwell Stamps and it's one that I've had for years and used on many occasions.  I've coloured it with Promarkers and used some brown paper, black dots and a peel off greeting to finish it off.

I'd like to enter the card in the following challenges:

Less is More - 'masculine'
Papertake Weekly - 'triple tastic'
One Stitch at a Time - 'something for the boy's

    This is fab Helen! I have that stamp (somewhere!) and I've used it for a man's christmas card too by stamping the waistcoats onto christmas papers and cutting them out.x

    This is lovely! I've heard so many people say they hate making masculine cards but there are so many lovely cards for this challenge! Yours is one of my favourites - I love the way you kept the colour palette really subtle.
