Father's Day Card


Well it's Father's Day next weekend, so I thought I'd better get started with making some cards. I have heaps to make this week - 3 father's day cards, a birthday card for Caitlin, a birthday card for Mum - all due this coming weekend! Stress!!!
I have been sick the last few weeks and have had no motivation to do cards. Last night I made this card for my Dad and I'm really happy with how it came out. Had fun with resist embossing - I do love this technique. Have used a Hero Arts clear fern stamp (letter F in the alphabet range of stamps) - embossed in white on white gloss card. Have swiped over the top with VersaMagic Dew Drop chalk pads Spanish Olive and Aegean Blue. Polished with a tissue - then swiped gold over the cardstock and embossed with gold embossing powder. For the Father word - have used the large F from the Hero Arts clear F stamp set and letters from a Hero Arts Classic Alphabet set. All mounted on blue and olive cardstock.
