the Happiest Day


 I made this card that will work for either father's day or a masculine birthday! I dug out my old Memory Box deer trio die and cut it from a piece of kraft cardstock. I took a piece of turquoise and embossed it with a retired SU! embossing folder and placed the deer on top, then framed it with a stitched die-cut frame and some dark espresso cardstock. The sentiment is a pre-printed one from SSS. I kept this one simple and chose not to add any embellishments.

I'll enter this into the following challenges:


the Little Red Wagon #604 - make it masculine

The Male Room Challenge #151- Dads and Grandads




Wishing you all a great day! Thanks for stopping by!
