Not only do we have to create a card with one layer only, but the topic is Masculine! Well, I think I can safely say this is a challenge :)
I had an idea in mind, I wanted to use the new stamp set from Stampin' Up! called The Wilderness Awaits.
Once I had stamped the image I wanted to add a bit of colour, after several failed attempts this was the version I was happy with...
Both the image and the sentiment were stamped with Memento Black ink, the card base is Tip Top Taupe card (one of the new In Colours this year) . I added a bit of colour to the stag and rocks using my Naturals Ink Pads and Blender Pen.
Around the edge of the card I used Soft Suede ink on a Sponge Dauber to soften the edges.
All of the materials for this card can be purchased from my web site...
Fabulous vintage style design Helen
