* For Dad *

Morning all

My card for today is a Tom Mielko image, now i must admit i'm not keen on making mens cards but as hubby's birthday is round the corner i thought i'd better get something done for him lol, this card is for my son to give his dad.

I'm quite pleased with how this has turned out as i always fear it's too feminine

hope you like it
