Hi, it's Debbie from Debbie's Time Out hosting the blog today.  Not sure if you would call this card clean and simple but it was definitely a quick and simple card.

For the base I used a product that Cheery Lynn Designs is now selling called Kraft-Tex. It is tough and doesn't tear and really looks like leather. I embossed the Kraft-Tex using the Gears Embossing Plate  . I layered the  Pierced Stacker #4 on top of that followed by the smallest of the  Circle Stitch and Cut Tool   with Happy Birthday printed on it.  I tucked some of the assorted gears from the Gears (Set of 9) in and around the circle. Last I cut the motorcycle from the Kraft-Tex and layered it for my focal point. It does makes a  great manly card.

I invite you now to come and join our bi-weekly challenge
