HB to our son who is a hunter

I was fortunate to be a recent winner of some Bugaboo images, and Gus the hunter was one of my choices - so many hunters in our family!  The first one is our son - not much resemblance, however!  But he goes hunting several times each fall.
I need to give credit to Sabrina, Cook22 at SplitCoastStampers for the inspiration she provided with one of her recent cards.  Thanks, my friend.
 Image - Bugaboo;  sentiment - the Rubber Cafe;  Misc. beige and brown cs:  LifeStyle Crafts embossing folder; twine.
Notes:  Once again I used my very dull blade to cut the pieces - it worked especially well on the beige cs, to create distressed edges.  And - I have some very thick twine - hard to use on cards.  Today I had a lightbulb moment and figured out I could separate it into 3 strands - much better as it is not so thick under the layers.
