I really wanted to make a special card for one of our customers who also is a great guy for his birthday.
I started with burgundy bazzill cs as the base. I layered with mustard bazzill cs. I also layered with Bo-Bunny Press Spicy Circles dp, ran it through the CB circle folder. I stamped the image with black stazon on white watercolor paper. I stamped the basket first, then masked it and stamped the birds eye behind it. I colored with primascolor pencils, blending stumps and mineral spirits. I stamped the sentiment with black stazon. The two main layers are raised with 3D squares. I then attached an olive ribbon underneath the layers.
I flipped the card to make it sideways. I hope this works for the challenge.
I enjoyed making this card for him and he just loved it when I gave it to him. He's going to put it on his fireplace mantel.

Connie, this is a superb masculine card! Amazing and well done ... I have to agree with Anne Ryan that the recipient should surely display this creation on his mantle!
