Here is what I made..

I have to admit that I always struggle with Masculine card.  But I think this card is man enough *lol*.

I first stamped the sombrero abit lower than the middle right of the panel.  I masked it off and then stamped with the cactus image that looks like he has 2 hands and as if he's wearing the sombrero.  Both images are from Prickly stamp set.  I also stamped the eyepatch and mustache to make it more manly look.  I then cut my panel with Fancy Frame Dies in order for me to see the spacing that I had left for my sentiment.

I then placed my sentiment along the left side of the cactus and free handed drawn the wood sign to fit my sentiment.  I then colored all images with various copic markers.  Once my coloring was done I embossed the sentiment.  It's from This & That stamp set.  To fill up my sky I used my cloud stencil to make sky background.

I adhered the panel on to brown laying card stock and then onto my card base.

Here is the closer look

I hope you like my man card and Thank you for stopping by today :)
