IC531 is a fantastic Nail art site on Pintrist. Oh my goodness I am in love with this inspiration board. I found this set of wild nails:Nail Art.
Needing to do another masculine birthday this was the perfect inspiration for my uncle who just loves being out in the the world of nature. I used a animal print DP to mirror the animal print on the nails. Stamped the image and colored with copics. Die cut the image in a circle and mounted on black. Stamped the sentiment and die cut that also in a circle and on black. The scene on the brown was stamped twice to get all the way across the card and it worked perfect. Then I mounted that on black. The leaf started as a DP with cream and white. I die cut the TH leaf, drew in the veins then added 4 different colors to the leaf to add the colors and interest. Mounted all on the DP, then clack and then craft card stock. I added a bit of interest to the top right corner with a chevron and added three dots of liquid pearls.
Thank you for looking!

You totally knocked this one outta the ballpark! It's a fabulously arty design...and I am really impressed that from a real girly girl site you could make such a perfectly masculine design! Wow! What inspiration genius!

Such a cool card! Love your leaf and your deer image - colored beautifully as usual. The animal stripes bg is a real eye catcher!!

Lisa, a terrific card for your Uncle...which I'm sure he is going to enjoy immensely. Love how you were inspired by the animal print of the nails to have a bg for your wonderful elk image.
