Here is my sample for Across the Miles:
Creative Nugget: Masculine cards are not easy for me, but these papers from the Weekend Market Collection by Bo Bunny certainly help. Several patterns were pieced and stitched to Really Rust card stock and attached to a Vintage Cream card base. The Friendship Script Background was stamped in Vintage Photo Distress Ink on a Vintage Cream panel. This layer was distressed and stitched to Really Rust. The map from Across the Miles was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black on Vintage Cream. This piece was then scrunched into a ball to create creases which were brushed with Walnut Stain distress ink and spritzed with water. The edges of the map were torn and further distressing was added with Wild Honey, Vintage Photo, and Walnut Stain Distress inks. The compass was stamped, distressed, punched out, and covered with Glossy Accents. The sentiment was cut with a Spellbinders tag die and attached to the compass and the card with button twine. The little cow is from the Landscape Silhouettes set and shows from where the card is being sent. This is my attempt at masculine...hope you like it!

That distressed map piece is fantastic, wonderful card!
Fabulous card Cathy. Love everything about it. The crunched up paper, the sponging, the background paper... the tag... just the right amount of distressing.
Cool papers & distressing! Seeing that cow on the map cracked me up. I did a double take then read your note, yes it is a cow, cute idea!
Great masculine card--I like the distressed look.
I am glad you have the thumbnail linked to a larger picture, so we could see how beautiful it is. You did a great job! I think this cool card is suitable for either gender. Great job!
