I made this card for the Paper and Such May Release Blog Hop yesterday and when I saw Hannah's Way's to Use It challenge about using birds today, it hit me, I should have had some birds in the sky behind this regal deer! This is from the Paper and Such set Deer Dad and if, like me, you have a hard time doing masculine cards, it's just great! I used masking to add hills behind the scene, and a die-cut using a Papertrey Ink cloud die to create the sky. The birds which I added are from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Serene Silhouettes.
If you want to see the original card and links to the blog hop, you can visit my blog.

Goodness, Bridget, this is an over the top amazing masculine card!! What a fabulous outdoor scene! That looks like a setting here in the Shenandoah Valley...there are deer EVERYWHERE and I have to watch not to hit any as I'm driving home from work late at night!

Bridget, this is the perfect masculine card. I love the scene and your pretty leaves/twine. Just couldn't be a better Father's Day card.

What a fabulous card for any Dad. I love that deer and the bg, and the embellies are masculine as well. Great job, BRidget!
