A bit more less is more

This is a second entry for the Less Is More Monochrome Challenge.  I've seen some lovely cards using Kraft lately, this is slightly darker than Kraft, I bought some card blanks in recycled card which will have to do for now!  I've used one of a much-loved discontinued Stampin' Up set, added some white highlights with Koh-i-Noor pencil and a Hobby Art quote which fits the card to perfection I think.  I know it's Less Is More but I hope I'll be forgiven the twine which finishes off this masculine card:)

Challenges for my card:
Less is More - monochrome
Art Impressions Stamps - monochrome
Craft us Crazy - father's day/ masculine
Digi Doodles - no backing papers
Paper Play - father's day/man's card

    A wonderful image and sentiment Anne and I love the natural tones. You're so right about the twine - it finishes the card perfectly.

    It's very masculine looking twine Anne... so I reckon that's fine... it's a great card too!
    Thanks so much for this second submission.

    So lovely! Twine isn't too Moreish, I don't think. It's definitely less more than ribbon. Beautiful card, wonderful layout and your image really stands out.
