Now on to my creation using the New Release- Anchor and the Fish Background Stamp. I colored the image with copics. The anchor was colored black to make it look like more of a shadow or storm to match the verse.
These sets are perfect for masculine cards...The distressing just seemed like a natural detail to add. The dp is Blue Awning from K&Co. I stamped and colored the image on one of the dp's to give it a more distressed feel. I cased a lot of the layout from my dear friend Pat! Thanks Pat! The border on the bottom is punched with a Stampin up Scalloped border punch. The image is cut out with Spellbinders Circles and my uber fun and handy Grand Caliber machine.
I hope you enjoyed my creation...the next stop on the hop is the talented and sweet Debi.
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a blessed day! Hope you enjoy the hop!

Chris, what a beautiful card. I love the sentiment. Did you add something to the inside? The papers are so perfect for this set. Hope I can find some. Thanks for sharing.
I really like the colors you chose for this. The earthy brown and black is really appealing. The distressing is done right...it gives interest, but doesn't look like it is falling apart.

beautiful card chris-the colors are so perfect with the image and scripture verse

Love your choice of the rich brown hues and such beautiful layers - fabulous card creation!
Chris, your work is outstanding. I love how you used a deep brown paper and coordinated it with a deep brown image.
I love the depth of this card with the colors...it makes it a "srong" card to give to a special someone.
The elements just seem to "flow" and the effect is stunning. I do like the way your circle is cut off, just the perfect touch!
The colours of your card blend so well together. I really like the look. thank you for linking to Pat's gallery. I agree her cards are wonderful.
I can honestly say that there are very few masculine cards that I would call stunning, but this is definitely one of them! Fantastic card, case'd or not, your colors and elements just work together like they were so meant to be! THanks for sharing! Blessings
beautiful Chris! I'm in awe!
Hello Chris, what a stunning and warm card!! Great work Chris!! Thank you so much for your concern; I've just come back from the dentist. It turned out that there was too much cement under my crown which was pushing on my gums from the inside. So glad it wasn't a big problem! Don't you hate dentist treatments?? I believe that in America you get like a light anaestetic but here in Holland you just get a sedation which is awful! Oh well, I'm ok now! HUgs, Frea
Love this card! This is another masculine card I will need to try to replicate! Thanks for sharing!
This is wonderful, love the sentiment! It's so good to see masculine card ideas. TSF!
That should have been TFS!
