It's All About Dad

Happy Memorial Day everyone.  Can you believe that it is almost June and that we are on our way to summer.  So thankful to have a lovely day after all this rain.  Lisa gave me such fun papers to play with this month, Chap by American Crafts.  They are just perfect for Father's Day and also for masculine cards.  I love this stamp set from Unity Stamp Company called What Matters Most and the houses were perfect for this title.   Right at Home also has lots of these Teresa Collins Enamel Dots which are very trendy right now.  They are a lot of fun to play with.  I am loving my Silhouette for titles on my cards, there is so much that you can do with this wonderful die cut machine.
Speaking of my Silhouette I made this adorable box using the American Crafts Chap line and it will be perfect to put some treats in for my hubby.  I bought the file from the Silhouette store and the assembly was a snap.  

Enjoy the rest of this beautful day.

Hugs,

Anita

Hello

This card just makes me giggle.  I love The Cat's Pajamas Mustaches die set and it works perfectly with this awesome line by American Crafts called Chap.  It is perfect for projects for the men in your life.  Remember Father's Day is coming next month.  I used some stickers on my card that match this line very well by Fancy Pants called Off to School.  I love when you can mix and match lines and have them work together beautifully.

I used a technique from the book from Card Maker Presents called A to Z Embellishments for Cards.  I used an embossing folder and ink to create a faux letterpress appearance on the central part of my card.  I applied ink to the side of the embossing folder where the impression is indented covering it completely.  I used Memento's Catnaloupe ink some cream cardstock.  You can see the sample card on page 65 of the book which Lisa has in the store.  It is filled with wonderful embellishments.

Be back towards the end of the month with another post with this gorgeous line.

Hugs,
