Old West Scene

With Father's Day coming up, there is a lot of demand for masculine cards.  I had this image (No idea of the source, someone sent it to me in an RAK) that screams "masculine" so now seemed a good time to use it. With such a large image, there wasn't much to do.  I ran the edges along an ink pad (Colorbox Chalk Dark Moss) because there really wasn't room to mat the image. The mustard colored paper is torn along the edge, and I used up five  eyelets to add a masculine embellishment. (That means I only have about 493 eyelets left).

I'm entering these challenges:
Inky Impressions #212 -- For a Man
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge -- masculine
Clear it Out Blog -- Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday #186 -- Anything Goes

    Add a zero after the number of eyelets you have left and you know how many I have left.... kidding! maybe. Love this great masculine card. I something think that the larger images are better for guy cards because then you don't have room to make too many embellishments or layers and make it too fussy.
