Men's cards

Good morning to you all. It's my youngest son's birthday next week and he has now moved to the countryside near Oxford so I thought these cards would be great for him. I have recently had my nails done. Very pretty I might add, but what a nightmare trying to craft. It is so hard to even pick anything up off the table.
 I love the tractor image on this one and yes its from one of my mcs cds. I put two different papers together and made a border down the middle of the card.

 This one I changed the image inside the frame. As my son is a keen fisherman I thought this digi image would be perfect. What a nightmare colouring it was. I used promarkers which I am not used to. I need more practice. Also I noticed that on some of my promarkers they hardly worked, only the large end. Is this because they are stored upright. I have since layed them down. The digi image was from Digistamp Boutique. Have a lovely weekend. Karen xx
