HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO ALL THE DADS OUT THERE!

I recently made two Father’s Day cards for my daughter. She asked for one for her dad and one for her partner’s father. And, any mum who makes cards would oblige.

I featured the Beside Me Cling Stamp Set.

As you may have guessed from the image below, the card on the right is for my daughter’s dad and the other for her partner’s dad – nothing like a little gender stereotype colouring.

The image was stamped using StazOn ink on Fluid 100 water colour paper. Then I used lots of colours to water colour the images.

When I was finished I used a Deckled Circle Die to cut around the image.

The Misty Moonlight cardbase had a panel of Misty Moonlight paper from the Neutrals 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper.

I used the banner die, from the Time Together Dies set, to cut a Crushed Curry banner to cut and place behind the deckled circle cut image. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals behind this piece to position on the card front.

Each card has a Father’s Day greeting, stamped and die cut, to pop up on the card front.

Inside the card, I stamped the sentiment “Beside me all the way.” The back of the envelope has the three birds image stamped on it.

Finally, I added some of the Misty Moonlight Tinsel Gems from the 3 Pack.

I used just a “few” colours to water colour the images. Have I ever said how much I love the range of colours we have in the colour families?

I was so pleased to be asked to make this year’s Father’s Day cards.

I’m not sure what I will be posting over the next week. I am currently working on projects for an upcoming team event day, where I am featuring some new products. It is very exciting because it will be one of the 35 for 35 Stampin’ Up! events.

Until then, happy stamping.
