Father's Day

Hi

Today I have a card that I've made for my father in law for Father's Day on 21 June.


I've used Sugar Nellies Home Grown "Where's Mine" Stamp, which I have coloured using my Copics. I distressed the edges using Tim Holtz Distess Ink in Faded Jeans.

The papers and sentiment are from a selection I have on my computer, although unfortunately I don't know where they are originally from.

The "Dad" charm is from my stash, as are the brads.

I am going to enter it for the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge "Fabulous Fathers!".

Thanks for dropping by and leaving your comments, they are always gratefully received.

Hugs
Penni

Lovely card Penni and such a cute image. I was thinking of getting this stamp, just haven't got round to it yet, but I love how you've colored it. Love the My Hero sentiment and the Dad charm hanging there, it adds a nice touch to it.
