Father's Galore

Using an image from the days of yore does not imply that your father is ancient, but that he is older than you and always will be! Laugh and celebrate the wonderful memories that you share. What do you think? 




Stamps:
   Feeling Sentimental
   All Year Cheer II

Paper:
   Gable Green A-2, 3-3/4 x 4
   Green Galore 5-1/4 x 4
   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:
   Archival Basic Black
   Green Galore

Technique:
   Dry Embossing
   Sponging

Accessories:
   1/2" Green & Blue Ribbon (2)
   Sizzix Ellison Embossing Folder
   Stamp-a-ma-jig
   Archival Black Pen 005
   Sponge
   Adhesive

First, I dry embossed the bottom of the Green Galore panel.

I then sponged it to accentuate the embossing.

I drew a black line on the top of the embossing to represent a road.

Next, I used a stamp-a-ma-jig to align my stamp for a precise placement. I stamped the image and then the sentiment.

I added ribbon on the top and bottom of the panel.

I then adhered the panel onto the card base, and added the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

    1. Thank you, Fonda. I too like the dry embossing, but I also felt that I needed to sponge it in order to highlight it. I appreciate you stopping by here and taking the time to comment.

  2. That is a great image for a father's day card. I love the layout and color you used too. That is a great way to add ribbon without adding bulk to a card.

    1. I agree, Lisa. I also had only a bit left to finish off this ribbon, so stretching it across the card was my best option. Thank you so very much, Lisa for taking the time to visit and comment. Much appreciated.
