This color combo was *definitely* a challenge. I love green and brown together. I love green and gray together. But I don't think gray and brown go together at all! Took me a long time to figure out what to do here...seriously, I pondered it the entire time I was at the grocery store and the line was really long too...and finally I decided upon this wolf stamp. I just had to get this stamp set before it retired and this is the first time I've used it So in the end, I kinda like what I did and I'm happy to have another man card in my stash...but I still am not a fan of brown and gray together!

I think this turned out great! They key was pulling out this dramatic wolf image. He has to be grey, so you had that part nailed. The leaves are beautiful and I love the embossed panel. You got this one handled after all.

Christy, your pondering paid off because your masculine card is TERRIFIC! The leaf panel is so well done, but doesn't detract from the wonderful wolf's head image. The dry embossing adds to the texture.

I really like this thought out card....You bg is amazing, and i mean amazing. You have the regal wolf standing alone which he has no problem doing. I really think this card is outstanding. Into my favs.

The colors were a challenge today, but I think your card came out very pretty with these colors. Love everything about it especially the wolf and leaf panel.

Oh, WOW, this is a very handsome card!! I love how you used the colors with the leaves. The texture is great, and the wolf looks good with this as well. Super job!!
