Fancied having a go at a masculine card this week and as fishing is very big in this neck of the woods - what better than a trout (or is it a salmon?).
I have used Jayne Netley Mahew Part 2 CD for both the image and the wonderful backing paper. This is the first time I have used buttons on a card (they are recycled from one of John's old shirts!) and have threaded them with linen twine and mounted them over a pheasant feather.
I do hope you like it and thanks for visiting. Please feel free to leave a comment - I do take on board what you say.
A gorgeous card Janet.Thanks for sharing this with us at CD Sunday.xxx
ReplyDeleteGood card, like the embellishment. It goes well with the backing paper.

This is a lovely card and your embellishments are jsut that bit different. My guess was a salmon but what do I know?

ReplyDeleteA smashing card. Thanks for joining the CD Sunday Challenge.
ReplyDeleteJanet, what a gorgeous male card!!! My fisher-husband and I both think that it is a salmon. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteThis is simply wonderful, what a fantastic male card, and I love your button & feather embellishments, male cards can be so difficult to embellish, but you've done a fantastic job :D
ReplyDeletePerfect for our challenge and for a man. Thanks so much for sharing with us at CD Sunday Janet. Hugs x
