Dustin Pike - Dudley challenge

After missing the deadline in the last Dustin Pike challenge, you would think I'd be more organised this time!  However, life happens!!!  At least I did get my card finished even if it is cutting it very fine.

As it happens I ended up with two cards.  I started one card and didn't like how it was going and put it to one side.  This is the second card that I started making:

It uses the following products:
Dustin Pike image - Dragon carol
Holly scrapbook paper
Red grosgrain ribbon
Copic markers
Nestabilities die
Sponged Anna Griffin ink



After finishing that card yesterday but not getting around to photographing it until today, I went back to the first card and was able to finish that one too.  I needed to get it finished as it is for a family who are leaving the area.  They have three boys so I wanted to do a card that had a more masculine feel - hence the creativity block.  I so struggle with cards with a masculine feel so I'm pleased that I managed to complete this one.  So, I decided I would add it to the post:

This one uses:
