Another sign that I haven't posted in far too long (and that my Septembers are far too busy!) is that I haven't shown the Father's Day card I made for my dad at the recent Team Weekend away. It was a quick and easy one, using a set I love but have neglected for quite a while - All in the Family. My dad has a loving tribe of four dogs, Tully, Wally, Nola and Brownie (shown in this card from left to right). They follow him everywhere, so the stamped image is pretty much autobiographical. The nuts and bolts stamp is from the Lots of Bots set, and the oddly unattached hardware at the top is a reference to the numerous bits of metal usually found about Dad's person. The card base is Old Olive, and the stamped panel is Confetti Cream. There's a slip of Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip to bring out the colours in the stamped image, authentically roughed up with some paper piercing and the distressing tool from the Cutter Kit. All done, and he liked it. Hope you do too!
