My card tonight is a card my DH asked me to make for a friend of his who retired. His buddy collects old watches so I used that image for the card.
Both the image and sentiment are from a Gina K stamp set designed by Theresa Momber called Timeless Treasures. I couldn't find the set on t he Gina K site so it might be retired. I embossed the sentiment with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain embossing powder. I stamped the watch in Momento Chocolate Chip ink. The dies I used was Spellbinder's circles, ovals and tear drop circles. I used some scraps from my scrap bos for the background papers. The image is popped off the background and I finished it off by adding the square self-adhesive gems. I used the sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches.
I am entering these challenges:
- Tuesday Morning Sketches: sketch
- The Paper Players: to "die" for
- Pile It On: die cuts and/or punches
Lots of storms moving through the midwest tonight and tomorrow. I hope wherever you are you are safe. Thanks for stopping by.

What a lovely masculine card - the sentiment is perfectly paired with the pocket watch. I love the strip of patterned paper across the middle too and the corner treatment. Thanks for joining us for our die cut challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
