A little argyle

 Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps Built and this week it is a fan favorite: Anything Goes!! And here is the card I created for your inspiration:

In need of a masculine birthday card, I decided to have a little fun with the "2in Diamond Silhouette" and a ruler.   I created my own argyle pattern with the diamond image.  I stamped them in a row, using my mini MISTI to stamp them as many times as needed to get a nice full impression.  Then I used my ruler and a red sharpie to add the details.  Then I die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle and stamped the sentiment.  I finished it off with a ribbon from my stash and added a star brad for just a little bling.  Mounted it on a red card base and called it done.
Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the House blog to see the rest of the DT's creations and then get inky and play along with us.  And if you need any of the stamps I used, check out my 10% off your ENTIRE order coupon code over in my left sidebar.
