It also meets 2 of this weeks challenges as I have used the sketch from Sketch Saturday and it also meets the animal antics theme for papertake weekly.
This is my favourite stamp to use for male cards and has definately been a wise investment! Coloured with my distress inks. I paperpieced the sign they are showing and used Doodlebug rub on's for 'dad'. All DP is from the BG Granola pad. Blue CS is coredinations. I ran the strip of paper at the bottom through the cuttlebug with the swiss dots folder before distressing with an emery board to make the white spots pop! Sentiment created with my dymo machine {also a favourite of mine on male cards}. The stars are handmade. Inner stars punched out from Granola paper and matted onto handcut white stars, with a little brown ink around the edges!
I quite enjoyed making this card, which is surprising as I usually HATE making male cards. Only because I'm usually stumped as to what to do without my cute girly images, sparkle and flowers! Lol!
Hope everyone is well. Just sat with my OH watching Leeds United in the play offs. They are currently one goal down! Please let them score another goal otherwise my life won't be living if they have to stay in league 1 for another year! :-)
Big Hugs, Vicky x

Good morning Vicki, im loving this dad card its perfect. What a great image and fabulous papers! hope you are having a good day enjoy your weekend hunny hugs Linda x
Fab card, I am sure your father will love it, I started crafting after I lost mine, so he will never know, but I make one every year and light a candle, he was my best friend ever and I nursed him through cancer, but the big C won. I too hate doing male cards, and we have a lot in our family and now that my grandson stays here, I have one nearly every week for his wee friends. Oh I do go on, sorry. Love Avril xxx
