It's Your Day

This is another one from my stash . . . yep, at posting time it's still early in the Christmas Season but I'm behind already!

While I don't often use patterned paper, I am always grateful to have it on hand when I need something a little different.  After die cutting the zig zag strip, the solid cream background is propped up with foam to create some nice dimension over the plaid paper.  I thought the copper brads and wire helped to make this a good choice for a guy card.  A seam ripper was used to slit the plastic coating on some scrap heavy duty electrical wire so I could extract the copper wire and tie it into a knot.  Easy peasy!
