Almost to the end of my SFYTT Guest stint

Is it just me or is October just going by so fast? It's hard to believe my time with the SFYTT Sisters is almost at a close, but not just yet! Here's my card for this week's sketch challenge. I wanted to make a more masculine card because it's so difficult for me to do. Go figure, since I live in a house full of boys! I hope I came close to achieving a more "manly" card using only part of the image from the With Deepest Sympathy set: I added Waterfall Stickles for the water because I wanted a sparkling and inviting lake. Another great idea would be to create a winter scene and having a frozen lake! Check out Angella's awesome card over at the ODBD blog to see her icy lake.

Please note: The ODBD blog will have a new home soon so please make sure to update your blog rolls accordingly so you don't miss out on anything. You may also start Following the new ODBD blog now.
