| Happy Dad's Day to my dear Jim, who manages all the many crises of our life with a unique blend of panic and stoicism!! lol... |
Hi, Friends.....
I am here with a Father's Day card for my dear hubby. He was so sweet and encouraging about my hand-lettered tag that I decided to make a hand-lettered card for him, too. I think it adds a personal touch....even if my handwriting isn't perfect. He will love it and keep it forever. (Awww....he's such a romantic!! <3 <3 <3)
I wrote out my sentiment with a black permanent marker onto a leftover bit of acetate and mounted it onto a scrap of white cardstock with tiny brown brads.
These panels were mounted onto brown cardstock dry embossed with my Darice - Checkered Folder. This was put on a kraft card base. I think hubby will like the clean crisp lines of this card and the vintage image.
Happy Father's Day, Darling!!! So glad you are the dad of my kids!!!
<3

I love the way your image turned out embossed, really looks super!! A very cool card!
ReplyDeleteYes!! The white embossing on kraft is a great look, especially with the vintage truck. Love the handwritten sentiments you've been doing and I'm so impressed that you wrote on acetate because I can never do that without my pen or marker slip sliding all over the place! As for your kitty photo...sheesh, not sure whether the e-collar or the pj's are worse for a cat!! Oh my!
ReplyDeleteThis is a perfect Father's Day card and I'm sure your husband loved it. The white embossing on craft is striking. Thank you for joining us at MFP Speedy Fox & Friends.
