Those of you who know me well know that I am a "sentimental type of girl" so the thought of duck shooting or hunting of any sort fills me with disgust.  However I know it is a sport that many people enjoy and farmers believe it is the way of managing their land. 

Today's set is called Duck Hunting so I avoided the shooting aspect and went for just the ducks.

Here are my two cards showing how the ducks can be used to create some peaceful scenes. 



I feel this card needs the sentiment "Another Birthday" on the front with the words Sadly Not Possible" inside!  I used the Marsh Silhouettes on this one.


This one uses All Postal with the ducks and plenty of flowers from my box.
