This is a vintage style card I made for my father-in-law.  I used Waltzing Mouse Text-it stamp set as well as a Michaels $1 stamp.  The patterned paper is from K & Company that was embossed with the swirls Cuttlebug folder.  I antiqued the card with Tim Holtz Antique Linen ink (which mixed with the chocolate chip Stampin UP ink and gave the backgrounds a real cool red tint), and distressed the edges with scissors.  The die cuts are made with Spellbinders and the Cuttlebug.  The ribbon is from Archievers.

Father’s Day Card

This card started with the sketch from PolkaDoodles.  When I saw the intersecting lines I had an inspiration to “basket weave” the ribbon.  The blue and brown color scheme seemed masculine to me so I made a father’s day card.

I stamped the blue background with versa stamp watermark ink. The stamps are from Unity and the scalloped circle and rectangle cuts came from the Celebrations cartridges.  I used silver embossing powder on the stamps.  I used pop dots on the circle on raise it up.

I hope you like it.  Thanks for your feedback!
