A couple of months ago, I did a card which featured a bobcat and, in order to get the coloring right, I printed out this photo from a search I did online. I have no idea who took the photo, nor do I remember exactly where I found it, so it's impossible for me to give credit to the photographer. It could have come from the National Geographic website or from any of the hundreds of nature photography sites which exist. I seriously thought about just throwing it away because of the problems with identifying the photographer but it was so beautiful, I just couldn't stand to dump it into the trash.
If anyone knows the photographer, please let me know so that I can give proper credit.
So, I created a simple card by cutting the picture with a QuicKutz die, then shaping the corners with a Fiskars punch. I mounted that onto back CS, and put it on a card base. The sentiment was done by heat embossing a Casual Friday stamp with white EP. Clean, simple, and perfect for any occasion.

The image is fabulous, the simplicity of your card really sets it off. Thank you for sharing with us at Double Trouble!
That is quite a stunning photo and I think this would make for a great masculine style card! I love doing this once in a while when I can't find just the right thing to use! So pretty against the black!
CAS and very pretty photo and frame cut for your bobcat and really pops against the black.
