Lees is More for Kieron

Hello,
I needed a birthday card today for Josh as he is going on a sleepover for his friends birthday this evening, what with one thing and another it has been left 'till the last minute (again ;-)) So, I thought I would combine this card with the Less is More challenge for Masculine Cards,
I love this stamp set, Engraved Greetings, for both boys and girls cards, it is so versatile but easily overlooked as it tucked right up the back of the catty amongst the papers (page 86, if you want a look)
I started off going to use a combo (from the Colour Coach) of Pear Pizzazz, Not Quite Navy and Peach Parfait, as you can see I changed it up to Crumb Cake to make it more masculine,
the circles are from another way under-used set, Circle Circus, and as you can see here I stamped a few inside, along with a strip of card and some thin taffeta ribbon,
Well, I hope you like, not sure if it is minimal enough to enter but hey ho, it's C&S for me ;-)
Thanks for stopping by today, back soon with another mans card,
Stampin' Hugs,

  22. Hi there, seeing your card gave me the urge to
    use my engraved stamp, which has been sadly underused. A lovely fold card, and I like the decoration inside the card.
