Men’s Vest Card
Posted: Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009 | Comments
Isn’t this adorable?
My husband doesn’t really like nature scenes (deer, wolves, etc.) for Father’s Day cards… he refers to them as ‘road-kill’ cards (niiiiiice… he’s so lucky he still gets one with that attitude!).
Since he dresses up for work (well, he doesn’t wear vests, but he does wear a tie), I think that this is more appropriate.
Accessories:
Close to Cocoa cardstock
To the Nines Designer Series Paper
Mini silver brads
Close to Cocoa ink, sponge daubers
Vanilla taffeta ribbon, ¾ inch square punch
1 1/16th inch hole punch, ¾ inch hole punch,
Dimentionals™
In advance to the requests, I have included the PDF template (left). Have fun with it! I really love the Designer Series Paper ‘To The Nines’ and the ‘Wanted’ set paisley stamp *just* coordinated!
*NEW* I have created a shortcut key in my sidebar to pull up all of the current and past Father’s day ideas that I have done, they only show four per page, so be sure to go back in the history (previous page) to see them all!

For Father “Rustic” Card
Posted: Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 | CommentsWell, I’m aware that this card is suspiciously like my Spring Song card, but I do like the color combination and the look of this type of card.
The card is River Rock with the Weathered background stamp in Close to Cocoa.
The image from the "For Father" set is a toolkit stamped in Staz-On and colored with Stampin’ Write Markers of the following colors: Creamy Caramel, Sahara Sand, Mellow Moss & More Mustard.
The layers behind the focal image are torn pieces of Chocolate Chip cardstock and a torn piece of Creamy Caramel cardstock (crimped).
Sponging helps the ‘rustic’ look. How’d I do?
