Make it Manly !

I kept seeing really cute shirt cards, and I do know how to fold one, but I decided to just make a tie. In order to enter the JustRite challenge, "Make it Manly", I needed to use JR stamps and sadly, I don't really have any suitable ones. So I used my JR Market Place Alphabet stamps to make my b'ground paper and used the "you are the best" stamp from the JR Grand Sentiments set for on the tie clip. All the paper is Authentique.
The JustRite Challenge is found here : http://justritestampers.typepad.com/justrite-inspiration/2013/05/justrite-friday-challenge-098-make-it-manly.html
I'm also entering another "manly" challenge at Love Rubber Stamps.

    WHOA, talk about just squeaking in under the deadline -- LOL -- like I did much better -- HA! I had a rough few days though, so really DID have a legitimate excuse, honestly. ;~]
    I LOVE how fabulously creative you were in using that Alpha set for your Happy Father's Day AWESOME BG -- I'd vote for you on that alone and in spite of the fact that your tie also really looks real -- WOW!!!
