Sketch Challenge

Today the sketch challenge made me think of embossed trees. 

I haven't used eyelets in forevah, so today was the day for those too.  I found a ribbon that was close to the color of the kraft layer, and I'm not really sure they take away from the masculinity of this card, but that's what I ended up with.

What really took the longest was not the choosing of the paper, but cutting the holes for the eyelets.  I found where I had put my long abandoned eyelet setter, and hammered away.  I should have thought to use a punch first, before adhering all the layers together.  I guess "too soon old, too late smart" applies here. LOL!

Have a great day.  Hope to catch up with you tomorrow.
