Happy Father's Day


Here are the last of my father's day cards I made this year. This is similar to the one I made here, but I added a clip and sentiment to the tie with a silver bead. Those tiny silver buttons on the shirt collar are brads.The sentiment is by MFP heat embossed with white ep on black.



This card started when I stenciled on a piece of dsp that has light tones of tan, pink, and blue. I used a Tim Holtz stencil with white ink, creating the rocks in the background. The border was done with an EK bricked punch in black, and the Inkadinkado sentiment was heat-embossed with white on a kraft panel. I added 3 small copper brads to finish this one off.

Happy Father's day to all the dads out there - I hope you all have a relaxing and happy day!

Such a great card! I can only imagine how impressed the lucky guy would be when he opens this up. Really fun details for the shirt buttons and tie bar.
