My Favorite Things, Sketch Challenge 211

First, let me acknowledge my grandson, Jeffery, for whom I made this card. Second, you had better sit down if you remember me posting about him over the years. {Darla, I'm mostly speaking to you, girlfriend!!} Jeffery's birthday is the 25th. And yes.....he will be 21. Holy crap. Yep, dead serious. My little buddy is an adult, the real kind that can legally enter a bar! But I digress.

My card for this challenge is of the masculine variety. Not always easy to achieve, but I found that this Basic Grey paper pad is perfect for manly-type projects. I hope you agree.

The banner sentiment is by My Favorite Things, stars, oval and rectangle dies by My Creative Time.

Inside message:
"Happy" is also by My Favorite Things, and the number stamps are Paper Smooches.
