well today i am showing another male card ~this one is for my father~ he does like to be in the garden, so thought this stamp i got for easter (never seen the light of day) would be perfect!!..and also for the first time used 8x8 card stock from the craftwork cards boxing day sale!!

used another amazing sketch over on :~
