Here is a masculine card using the CTMH stamp set "A Journey" I never have enough cards for the men in my life.  I will be making a few others using this stamp set.  I just love those foot steps.

I stamped the leaves on the CS and using Tim Holt's distress ink, distressed the card inside and out.
Using CTMH paper because of it's white core, I embossed, tore, sanded, wrinkled and inked the
 brown  CS. I stamped "Life is a journey and the foot steps, distressed and added the twine.

Inside the card

Hope today's life journey sends you over bridges to new and exciting adventures.
