Thank you card

I am learning how to use sketches to incorporate my own ideas, so this idea from Freshly Made Sketches came at just the right time for me to hone my skill at this and at the same time make a thank you card for John, who has done a greatly appreciated service for Russ and me.  Here is my attempt...

The paper is from an old collection I still have in my stash... Masculine papers from Hot Off The Press, to which I added some sparkling brown and teal cardstock die cut pieces and piece of glitter ribbon.  Add a few Jewel Dazzles and there you have it!
