The image is a La Pashe decoupage sheet and the papers are from my Bearly Mine Designer Extreme CD. Full details of everything I have used are listed below. I matted the image onto black card stock and then onto Kraft to make it stand out a little.
This is the inside of my card, I tried to show the decoupage a little but I don't think I succeeded.
I always find it difficult to embellish men's cards so I kept it simple, just some string with a button tied to one side and an anchor charm.

This is a great man's card Pauline, love the anchor charm.
I was convinced I had a charm of a ships wheel which would have been perfect for a card I made this week, when I eventually found it, it turned out to be a snowflake :o)
