I love trains and have had a few rides on them before I drove and while there were still those old fashioned trains carrying at least freight. So I chose the train as my theme and changed most everything on the card,but kept the train as the main focal point.
Where I grew up in Northern WI there was a logging museum that had a train engine somewhat like the one on my card so it holds fond memories. My train is coming 'round the corner through the woods and making a huge noise as they all did. Definitely a masculine card and I believe it's going to my grandson for his birthday tomorrow. I like it and hope you do too.

Striking card, Carol. I see you've placed your image just a wee bit over your trees, like you did on another one of cards. Very creative and makes for a great guy card, too.

Love it. I like trains, too. Yours looks like it's coming out of a tunnel; it's so cool. The trees are a nice addition. The way you layered it gives such dimension; it looks almost 3D. It's a wonderful masculine design. Nicely done with your inspiration. Great card. TFS
