Masculine Retirement


 I had a request to make a retirement card for a gentleman who always enjoyed deer hunting and this is what I made for him. I used some retired SU! woodgrain papers along with some gold glitter paper, black cardstock and a die-cut deer stag by KaiserCraft. The card base layer was done with Lil Inker stitched rectangles while the oval scalloped frame was done with GinaMarieDesigns dies while the horizontal stitched panel behind the oval was done with a MFT die. The SU! Teeny Tiny Wishes sentiment (2009-2010) was heat-embossed with gold ep and cut with a MFT fishtail banner die.

Sharing this with the following challenge

The Allsorts Challenge week #757 - stitching, Real or Faux

Thanks for stopping by and I hope life is being good to you in your part of the world. Have a great weekend!

You are always so good with masculine cards Carol, love the design with that sparkling frame and the wooden base! The fishtail banner in the centre stage looks great!
Sending big hugs and love, here it's cold and raining, winter seems arrived even if the leaves are still on the tree branches!
