~Dad's Day~

Hello Everyone,

Just trying to use up some DSP before the new catalog comes out!!!

This DSP is SU's "To The Nines"

I had some chipboard letters that matched the paper so I thought I would use them.

I made some score lines on the top portion of the card but hard to see in photo.

The large star looked a little plain so I added a button with some Linen Thread.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend and thanks for taking the time

to stop by my blog!

Lovely as a Tree "Father's Day Card"

The "Lovely as a Tree" stamp set is so versatile and this giant oak reminds me of a strong man.

Masculine cards are always a challenge but I really like this rustic look.  The Log Cabin Smooch helped to achieve this look with just a hint of shimmer!  I used the "Thumping Technique" on the top of the tree.  Stamped entire tree in Certainly Celery and removed the ink from the trunk with a Blender Pen.  Used Soft Suede for the trunk, then with my markers I thumped the top of the tree with Summer Sun, Old Olive and Soft Suede.
