My Dad's birthday and Father's Day are just around the corner, so here is one of the cards I have made to help him celebrate.
Do you know all the Fiskars tools I used?
Started off with my Mini-ShapeBoss and Embossing Stylus to emboss the letters, then took my large Seal of Approval squeeze punch to punch each one out. As I used Core'dinations cardstock, I sanded off the embossing and outer edges to highlight them. The XL Seal of Approval is behind the metal clock face (a lucky bargain on sale at Spotlight yesterday).
Next came the banner bits - I used the Jenni Bowlin Blue Ribbon squeeze punch (thanks heaps Lyn, that was the punch I won from you earlier this year) but only punched along a strip using the top section of the punch.
Last, but definitely not least came my Scalloped Sentiment border punch for the pretty edge along the striped paper. The dots are embossed dots on Core'dinations cardstock that have been sanded back for contrast.
I had heaps of fun making this card and hope that my Dad likes it too.
Thank You for looking,
Tracy
FYI - I have entered this card in one of the challenges of the Core'dinations Hard Core online crop, so please wish me luck!
gorgeous card Tracy...your Dad will love it
