Suzanne, your card is gorgeous!! I love the colors and the unique combination of gears (which are usually metal) with wood patterned paper. Not to mention how you incorporated the sketch...very creative!
Suzanne, I love your card,,, especially the woodgrain background! Did it come in those colors, or did you use markers to give it such a beautiful color palette? Beautiful!!! -Donna
The colours you have used here are so beautiful and I just love the card. Those gears make a great focal point and your chain is genius.
Such a fun card - isn't that coloured woodgrain paper fabulous?
What a cool card Suzanne. I love how well the paper and dies work together. Thanks for joining in this us at Just Add Ink.
Great card Sue! Those gears work so good as the circle elements of the sketch. This would be an awesome card for a guy! :)
A fabulous make for a masculine card!

Fantastic masculine design, Suzanne! The colors are wonderful and I love the gear cluster. Thanks for sharing with A Cut Above's May Challenge.
Thank you Kim, it was a fun challenge.
All paper, no markers.... it was a beautiful set of woodgrains that Melanie R gave me as a gift. It's been in my stash a long time and so glad I brought it out for this challenge.
Thank you... the chain was an afterthought on how to bring in the image.
I don't know why it sat in my stash for so long, I guess waiting for the right recipe and sketch. Thank you.
Thank you Lou.
Thank you. Planned for a June birthday.
Thank you Diane
Thank you, Vicki.
Your card is fabulous, Sue! I love how beautifully the Rainbow Wood paper worked for your design.
Lovely card, nice color, and those dies you used worked so well on here. Thanks for playing our challenge this month at A Cut Above. Have a nice day. Leanne DT/ACA
