Masculine card

Hi all, this was a hard one as I often find it difficult to make men/boys cards. Must be the lack of all things pretty. But it's my Uncle's birthday this week and I came across a sketch with a spin challenge at The Sweet Stop. The twist is, it has to be masculine. I combined this with the challenge at Magnolia Stamp Lovers which is dry emboss your background and here is what I came up with.

Stamp is Magnolia- Sea background from the BonVoyage collection. I have coloured with copics, and used  'stormy sky' distress ink with my inkessentials blending tool for the sky. Top of waves have some stickles and die is from spellbinders.
