I was thousand of miles of away from my dad for Father's Day (my folks travel every summer), but we spent a lovely day with my father-in-law. We went to an East Coast favorite, Silver Diner; the food is so fresh and delicious, and of course the company was great!
I made him this card using a KennyK image, a CTMH paper, and the last of my cityscape die cuts:
Funny story about the CTMH map-patterned paper: by pure coincidence, it's a map of the Bethesda, Maryland area, where is where my FIL lives! He noticed immediately, and we all had a laugh about it.
The cityscape is heat-embossed in Kaleidoscope/glitter powder. I inked the pieces with SU! Barely Banana. The ribbons were both purchased at CYDI.
I used the opposite side of the CTMH paper for the inside, and added a simple pop-up message:
The sentiment reads "Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a Dad," and is by Paper Makeup.
Inspiration/Challenges:
CAS-ual Fridays #105: "Mapquest" (I know this is on the edge of CAS, but it's about as CAS as I get!)
Catered Crop: Masculine Card
There She Goes: Anything Goes
Thank you for visiting, and best to you & yours,
