Pilin' on the Traditional Recipe

The theme this fortnight at Pile It On is Something Old, Something New, Something Blue. We're sponsored by Eureka Stamps, but this time I made a Father's Day card featuring patterned paper & a sentiment piece from the "Handyman Hero" collection that came free with an issue of PaperCraft Inspirations

Old: Papers & wood from stash
New: Memento dye inks (Desert Sand & Gray Flannel)
Blue: Papers


I made the nut-patterned paper myself. I used a die, a punch, & hand-cutting to make the stamp out of foam. I made two stamps, one for each color.
