This is for a friend's birthday. He is retired but makes furniture in his spare time.
I thought the stamp with the man with a crown and maths was suitable so I stamped onto the plaide, then again onto white card which is then coloured with Copics, fussy cut and layered. I covered the crown with Cosmic Shimmer gilding flakes, and added black Enamel Accents to hang the tools on. The sentiment is heat embossed. The stamps & dies are unbranded. I used a woodgrain paper for the board to hang his tools on - just as they are in his workshop. The plaid paper is digi print and has been sitting in my bitz box for ages.
