Hi Gail, what a great, manly card! Love that background texture. I especially like the way you ran the embossing horizontally while having the woodgrain on which the stag head is mounted run vertically. It makes a nice effect. Love the colouring and shading. This must be a world-class head-mount with all those points. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Love the dear head Gail. Perfect for this card. The wood background and smaller details really make it pop. Thanks so much for sharing at the Watercooler Wednesday Masculine card challenge this week.
Your card is loaded with details to appeal to any man - texture, colours, and a very noble-looking stag head. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday.
A great masculine card with a very strong image for any male. I like how the embossed woodgrain is going horizontal rather than vertical - adds real interest to a great card x
Lovely take on the photo inspiration. Looking forward to seeing you again in the ATSM gallery soon. Nandini, DT

You have definitely conquered the man-card challenge! They are so hard to make but you nailed this one perfectly. The textured background, the colors, and the buck look great together! Thanks for playing along with us at Fusion!
