Just Add Ink # 619....Winners!

Hi everyone!

It's that time of the week when we announce our Winners and HM's for Challenge # 619 (Masculine).  Often (for some of us) it can be difficult to put together a Man card - so it was wonderful to see a full gallery of ideas and inspiration.  Thank you to all of you for participating. 

Our Top Pick this week is Rochelle Laird-Smith with her "Best Dad Award" Card

Here is what some of the design team had to say...

"All of those details make this masculine card just awesome!"

"Fabulous! So many gorgeous details, a perfect take on masculine!"

"So many lovely & clever details that make this a real wow"

Congratulations!
