Wetlands continues to be one of my go to sets for masculine cards.
I'm so glad it wasn't retired!
I inked the goose stamp with markers and stamped.
Using a blender pen and a bit of Crumb Cake marker scribbled on a plastic lid,
I colored the body of the goose.
I masked the goose and stamped the taller grasses "behind" the goose
with Delightful Dijon ink.
Some die cutting and some embossing with the
Lil' Inker Stitched Circle die gave him a good place to hang out.

The Masculine Touch
MAKE YOUR MARK
I used markers to ink the goose stamp.

Here's another of our recent visitors....
A baby bluebird
In typical baby bird fashion, when he saw his mama
he opened his mouth for a snack.
I'm glad you visited too.
Enjoy!
