Dogs and/or Cats TMR

 Hi everyone, my DT card today is for 
 
I've only got digital images for cats or dogs, so that's what's used today. The images were edited in Photoshop, adding a sentiment, then printed and die cut it. Looking for cat images in my files, I found a shape I thought I could use. I tried cutting it with Silhouette, but it was too fine and didn't cut properly, so I made a shape similar, but with thicker lines, in the design area, and cut it out of gold mirror card.
 
I embossed the edge of the printed background then decided to add splots to the background, after seeing another blogger do the same, but now I don't know who it was, sorry. I used hickory smoke and faded jeans DO's mixed to match the images, shame they don't show up in the photo. I attached the image layer to the card and then the gold frame. 
cat & dog - Creative Fabrica
frame - my own design
sentiments - my own
inks - Distress Oxide, hickory smoke, faded jeans 
gold mirror card - The Range
 
I have a few nephews on the cusp of old in the next few months, so I made another. Much the same but with a different sentiment and cut to the frame to hide a cutting error. You can see the splats more on this second card.  
 
 
I hope you can join us in the challenge, and get your creative juices flowing for those difficult male cards. There are great ideas from the DT to view.

Faith, I REALLY like that gold frame you created to "ground" your cute critters on the card front. I have a Brother cutting machine, and my imagination was truly sparked when I saw your card as one of our The Male Room DT inspiration cards!!! -Donna
