Got Moose?

 Digi Doodle Shop's Best - Challenge #57 - Sketch



This week our challenge over at Digi Doodle Shop's Best is the sketch above.  As you can see, it's a very easy sketch.  I'm sure you'll love seeing all of the wonderful work the rest of the team did.  And don't forget to stop over at the Shop and check out this week's new images and sale.  They're fantastic.  You'll see a preview of a couple of these images on the DT's cards today.
This is for one of my daughter's friend in Canada, and I thought it would get a chuckle. When I saw the moose, I immediately thougtht of him.  Inside the card's answer to the caption is: "Eh?"  We're always teased about some of the words we use, so I thought I would pick on him now this time.  I typed the caption out on my computer.  Being this was for a male and I'm mailing it out of the US, I wanted to keep the postage down, so I didn't add too many embellishments to it.  The background paper is some I made by embossing the paper with a die by my new favorite die company, Cheery Lynn Designs   I used Tim Holtz alcohol inks, one of which was copper. 

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Perfect card for a male from Canada :-)
I like all those buttons you incorporated - and they do NOT look feminine!
Have a nice day today!
