Masculine Birthday Card-Simon Says Wednesday Challenge

Time for a new card to post over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. The challenge is to use a clear or a rubber stamp. I made this card for my cousin's husband who is an avid outdoorsman. I really like how my inking technique turned out to make this card look like a stroll through the woods on a crisp, foggy, fall morning. I have to give credit to the gal that inspired this card.

Patriotic decor

Image
There are a couple of patriotic challenges going on right now ( Our Daily Bread Designs , Simon Says Stamp Challenge ). After I found the Simon Says Stamp Challenge, I discovered that they have a vintage challenge as well ( Simon Says Stamp and Show ) and the Challenge is "Anything Goes"! This piece fits both categories, so I am going to enter it there also! After debating whether or not I wanted to do a card, I decided that I needed some patriotic décor for my home. So I made this piece with a built in stand on the back.
