Here is my card to honor Toy this week as our QFTD110 - my card was a CASE of her Cala Lily right here though I know it looks NOTHING like her flowery card, although it gave me lots of inspiration. This week we kicked off the campaign to bring back Da Man - we are hoping to convince SU to re release the Wild Wild West set, so we, who came in too late to get him have a chance to enjoy him.
This is also for the TSC0427 this week to do a card with Faux Leather on it = of course my card has the man - he is all about manly leather - chaps, vest, boots, gloves - what a hunk of man!
I did the faux leather technique with masking tape found in the resources and added a belt made with embossed and sponged cardstock, and a faux metal BUCKLE I made by embossing with copper EP several times over cardstock I cut out to make the buckle -
(**Yeah, Buckle Man, I used my exacto knife**)
I punched some pine and leaf branches, cut the Man out with nesties, sponged lightly, and added some brads - very masculine!! Added a lasso rope made with twine, and some barbed wire twill to dress it up. You can tell I am in MAN MODE this week. Sure hope SU will re-release that set again soon!! HERE is where to go to let SU know you support this set being released again!! Email them, write them, phone, PLEAD with them - we need our MAN back!! Thanks for your support!!!

Oh my heart is pounding!!! He is gorgeous! I love your Holly inspired card. Fab twill and your belt w/ the copper buckle is awesome.
Your link does not work to SU.

Geenie, this is amazing! Love your buckle - you need to get a blog and do a tutorial on how you did it because it is really cool. The Man is look spiffy here - he matches that dp underneath him - he is so good at that (and everything else you know -that is why he is DA MAN). Handsome card (and Man). Love your details - it is is obvious how much you love that Man. WWW hugz to you.
