Good morning to all my lovely friends and followers. I hope your week is going well and you are doing some nice things.
My post today is Retro Cars and I've made it to launch our new challenge over at Crafty Ribbons The theme this fortnight is Cards for the Men. I know this is not always popular but I find once I get started I quite enjoy making them. This challenge will give you the opportunity to make a male card and maybe win the great prize we always have from The Crafty Ribbons Store.
