Father's Day Card

Hello! Yesterday I said I was going to post some photos of the flowers I went and bought, but I haven't had time to upload them yet. I also wanted to make some cards because I work most of the day today. I'm hoping to post some pictures of my day at Pahl's Market. It's a fantastic place where I buy my plants for my gardens! So stay tuned, it will happen eventually!

I finally made a Father's Day card for my hubby. I used Hero Arts Cling Dots with Peeled Paint and a spritz of water before stamping. The Silhouette Grass was stamped with Bundled Sage. For the distressed background, I used Tumbled Glass and Broken China. The Silhouette Spray is embossed in white. I added a Martha Stewart, punched butterfly and some Hero Arts pearls. I'm hoping he doesn't think it's too feminine. Sorry this photo isn't the best.



I have another card I made that I'll post tomorrow. Enjoy your Sunday! :)

Barb, I love all the different stamping techniques you used and I don't think it's too feminine. I'm sure he'll love it! Can't wait to see photos of your flowers and the market.
