2nd post today - Angler Card

 
Needed a birthday card for someone I used to work for many years ago.  I find it a bit difficult to make masculine birthday cards, but I think he might like this one since it has fishing as the theme.  The stamp is from a retired SU set called Angler.  Stamped the image with Memento black ink and colored with Copics.  Tag and image were cut out with Nestabilities dies.
  Cardstock is called Bahama from Bazzill.  Used GP White for image and tag.
 
Challenges:
Simon Says Challenge - By the Sea
Sister Act Challenge 16 - Anything Goes
Eureka Stamps Challenge 49 - Happy Birthday
Whoopsidaisy Challenge - Use 2 or more die cuts
Bearly Mine Challenge 96 - Anything Goes

Oh WOW the colours on the image are really striking. A gorgeous card, perfect for a man, but really would be just as perfect for a woman too. I'd love looking at something so vibrant on my mantlepiece!
