Nephew Card

A quick post tonight with another card commission - I just got "adult nephew" as a theme so no much to go on....  I found this previously uninked stamp in my old wood stamp stash and used it as a starting point.  That took me to playing with circles so I used some circle alphabet stamps to spell out Nephew, added some nested circles, some buttons, some dots and some dotty and starry paper strips.  It was quite quick to do, and I think the overall look is quite effective so I can see me returning to this idea for other male cards.  I seem to always get comissions for male cards when all I have is a room full of pink, lilacs, ribbons and flowers - I think I may need to design my own range of masculine stuff!!!!



As this is also in shades of green, I am going to enter it into this challenge:
