Working on a Swap

Now that I've been feeling creative again,

I decided to join a swap on SCS.

Actually, it's two separate swaps:

a card for a man, and one for a boy.

Here is what I came up with. 

I think I'm happy with them.

cardstock: Recollections white
stamps: wolf image is an individual stamp I picked up at a sale,
but has no information on it, the sentiment is from SU Birthday Greetings
ink: SU close to cocoa - I stamped the sentiment in versamark, then
