I'm trying to get the rest of my Father's Day cards made. My son-in-law loves his motorcycle so I decided to use SU's stamp set - One wild Ride. I've made a few cards in the past with this set and decided to use it for his card.
I cut a piece of Smokey Grey CS 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". I cut my Basic Black CS 10" x 3 3/4" and scored it at 5" and adhered it on the Grey CS. My layer of Whisper White measures 3 1/2" x 4 3/4". I then embossed a piece of silver foil measuring 3 1/4" x 4 1/2 and adhered it on the layer.
I fussy cut the motocycle and used some 3-D Lacquer and added some glitter and popped it up with some dimensionals. Because of the foil I had a hard time taking a picture of it. I used one of the sentiments in the set and tied on some black ribbon.
I used my Michael's stamp again for the inside sentiment and some left-over stars from my previous card. Another quick and easy card, but I liked how it turned out. I always struggle with cards for the guys. But I know he will like it because of the motorcyle.
It has been really hot and humid here for a couple days. Here is how Jennifer is cooling off!
All the pools are still closed, but I think she is having more fun in the creek! She was amazed seeing the little "fishes" she saw swimming around! Her last day of school is tomorrow, so I am hoping for some sleep-overs! Hope you have a great weekend!
Thanks for stopping by,
Nancy
Nancy, the Father's Day card is awesome! Your SIL is going to love, love, LOVE this...especially since he is into motorcycles. You really did a great job on this, as usual.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful Friday night and a Happy Weekend! Stay Safe, dear friend!
You did a Awesome job on the Fathers day card. Love how you cut out the motorcycle. It really looks great. He is going to love it.
ReplyDeleteJennifer seems to be having a good time. Hope you get to do lots of sleep overs. We just got back from spending the weekend with our daughter and grandkids at a lake. We had a wonderful time. Hope you have a great week.
You've made the perfect Father's Day card for your son-in-law! It's so hard to photograph the mirror metallics. It either looks black or it looks like one big reflection. I would love to hang out where Jennifer is playing in the water! It may not be as fun for her as a pool full of kids, but it sure is beautiful. Wally and LuLu would love it!
ReplyDeleteOH YES!!! The motorcycle is PERFECT for Father's Day, & for a guy that LOVES motorcycles!(My hubby would like this too! We were JUST talking the other day & how it's better he NOT have a motorcycle at his age! LOL) The metallic paper makes it even MORE EYE CATCHING too! Your granddaughter looks like she is HAVING A BLAST in the creek! It IS MORE INTERESTING FOR SURE than a pool!!! AND BIG INKY HUGS DEAR LADY for your SWEET VISIT!!! I look forward to seeing some water coloring! ;)<3
