Make it Monday, #110, No.2

Well, I think I am "Collage Challenged"! I tried to make a more masculine birthday card, using  Dawn's Collage idea, and came up with this. I really like CAS styles, but I can't seem to do them, as this one seems too "busy". I guess I'll have to keep practicing... :)
Thanks for looking!

    Not busy! Delightful! And Masculine, this card is just perfect. Your elements are so well collaged (is that a word?) Everything melds great!

    You've done an incredible job on all of your collage cards, Kathryn. I think this might be my favorite, though. It's a great mix of shapes, stamped in perfect balance. Fabulous use of a monochromatic theme, too.
