I colored my image with Copics and went on a search for paper that I thought would be appropriate for a masculine card. At the same time, I wanted it to be 'not so drab' and a bit cheerful for the holidays.
I have some punched deer on each side of my sentiment thinking that will make it a bit more manly.

Love the tree, Benzi! The deer are a great touch. I don't think you could do a "drab" card. :-D
This is handsome ... love your punched deer! Great job coloring your tree!
No snow here ... just LOTS of rain and it is cold ... yuck.
Great Christmas card, Brenda! I love the cute tree and how you framed it! The reindeer are a great touch!
Love the punched out frame. Wonderfully coloured image and love the reindeer on the sides of the sentiment.
Ooooooooh! This reminds me of an old fashioned Christmas! Love your DP's, the way you framed your tree, and those deer are precious with your sentiment too!
