I was really excited to see yesterday's CC and then today's SC...I need a birthday card for a 60th Birthday Party for a friend of ours this weekend so this was what I came up with using both challenges. He actually likes golfing (a lot!!!) but I have no golfing stamps! (Note to sefl...MUST get golfing stamps!) LOL!
I did use Crystal Effects on the water and the rocks, but I don't think you will be able to see it very well. IRL it looks really nice.. Also, I popped up the seagull on the stump & added the flying birds in the sky...I think it gives the card a nice touch.
For some reason making a man's card, unless it's in the fall, really makes me stretch myself!!
Have a great day and TFL!

I think what is the hardest about making a manly card are the colors and the fact that you cannot add alot of sparkly bling. YKWIM. This card is perfect for a man. Love the lighthouse and the added seagull and his perch are perfect. TFS
