For the embossed element, I ran a piece a patterned paper through a Picnic Plaid Embossalicious embossing folder, then inked over with Tea Dye Distress Ink to show the design. I decided to tear a couple of the layers for a vintage, masculine look, and I inked them with Tea Dye ink too.
To embellish, I added some grosgrain ribbon, buttons, and nail heads for a blokey finish.
