Make it masculine!

Hello! Seems like ages since I've shared a card! Just back from a lovely relaxing holiday in Devon...feeling refreshed and rested after doing nothing but enjoy myself :) We were lucky with the weather too, mostly dry warm and sunny! I'd like to say I have a lovely tan, but it'd be a lie...however I do have a red and peeling nose (so very attractive!) to show for the day we sat looking over the bay enjoying a glass of wine (or two), chatting to friends and not realising quite how strong the sun was!
Well, back to business... my card is for this fortnight's challenge at Creative Moments - the optional theme is to make something for a special man in your life/ Father's Day. Well I have 5 brothers and numerous nephews/great nephews as well as a husband, son, son-in -law so I'm spoilt for choice really! I made this card with one of my brothers in mind, but it would be equally suitable for one of my great nephews! The image is from Stitchy Bear one of our lovely sponsors for this challenge and is available here.
I printed him twice, once onto white card and once onto the green/blue dp. I coloured his arms legs and spines with copics, cut the body from the dp and ran it through a spotty embossing folder before sticking it onto the main image with pinflair gel to add dimension and texture, he has a lovely rounded tum (a bit like mine after my lazy holiday!) The sentiment is a Visible Image stamp which I die cut with a stitched circle die and made into a little tag. I added one wobbly eye!
This fortnight'/s sponsors are:-                   Stitchy Bear Stamps
