I have a masculine birthday card needed for September so I thought I would do a little combining today. I made my own DP from an online map and stamped boot prints on it so I think that counts for the technique challenge to stamp on DP. I used the colors from today's color challenge and the idea to use a map came from Catered Crop Recipe Swap.
My BIL and his family live in MN and they take canoe trips in the Boundary Waters so the map is of entry points. I like to camp and I will backpack (not my favorite thing) but canoeing in the boundary waters...now to me that takes an ADVENTUROUS spirit so I thought the sentiment from Unity worked well with this.
Not sure if you can see it but I scored the map to look like it was a used a map.

This is fabulous. Love the foot prints. I am sure the boots got more than just a little muddy as they portage the canoe. I wanted to take a canoe trip this year, but my daughter's wedding kinda got in the way. Maybe next year.

My DH and I love to hike, so this is right up my alley! Love the canoe with the word and meaning on it, the footprints are priceless and perfect for a map! How smart of you!

This is so cool. I love the boot prints over the map and that canoe is too cute.
