The Male Room - Father's Day

It is Father's day here in the UK on Sunday so the challenge in The Male Room this week is not surprisingly "Father's Day", sadly mine is no longer with us so I don't have a reason to make a card other than for this challenge.


I have used a retired stamp set Best Dad Ever and had a brainwave! the four ties are all one stamp and I had never got on that well with colouring each one with marker pens. I never seemed to get the crisp finish I wanted, so I cut it up into four separate stamps. Brilliant! I stamped them onto scraps of paper and fussy cut each one out, then attached them to a rectangle of Naturals Ivory card. The background was made by stamping the different stamps with Versamark and clear embossing them onto Real Red and then matted onto Early Espressop (although it looks like black in the photo). In due course I'll change the sentiment to Happy Birthday so that I can use the card.

Seize the Birthday - Masculine



I completely missed the feminine version of this sketch at Seize the Birthday last week.

 I just ran out of time as I was busy getting ready to visit family for a long weekend. So I was determined not to miss the Male version and made this card just before I left but had no time to post it.

I used a combination of Lucky Limeade and Cherry Cobbler with a leftover piece of some DSP from a Christmas Scrapping kit which was on my desk from some earlier cards I'd made. I coloured the stamp with the SU markers. And as I have used scraps again I'm taking this over to Pixies Crafty Workshop to the Playground.

Recipe:
Cardstock: Lucky Limeade. Cherry Cobbler
DSP: Lucky Limeade
Stamp set: Best Dad Ever, That's the Ticket
Other: Stampin'Write markers Cherry Cobbler. Lucky Limeade, Scallop Edge Border punch, Ticket Builder punch, Oval Framelits
