Grunge Buck

I had a leftover gold embossed buck from doing a bunch of swaps, and when I saw this challenge sketch from Nacho Average Challenges, I knew I had to make a quick card with it!


It fits perfectly with the buck! 

I had a lot of fun making the background with Gently Falling in Baked Brown Sugar and Gorgeous Grunge in Crumb Cake. The card base is actually a retired color, River Rock. I love River Rock and am glad I have quite a stockpile of it. A good substitute for it could be a linen or "old paper" colored paper. 

Inside is stamped a bit also. I left this blank for now. It could really be for anything for a guy. 

How about some more of the camouflage craziness! I found these in the checkout lane at Walmart last year! I had to laugh! We do get a lot of deer hunters here in the Bemidji area, and pretty soon we will have our deer vs. hunter chart up in the ER, hehe!

    Ooh, me likey! The texture behind the buck layer looks almost like camo. Very cool.
