It's Father's Day in Finland today and here's the card I made for my Dad. Somehow clean-and-simple always seems the best way to go with masculine cards and it's what I chose to do here.
I used products from Concord&9th, the stamp set is called Give Thanks and the die set Layering Leaves. I first stamped the images in different shades of blue (Distress Oxide inks in Stormy Sky, Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire) on a panel that I had die cut with a die from the Border Collection set by Penny Black. After the images had dried, I heat embossed the lines on the wheat. I then die cut the leaf that is on top of the middle image, and heat embossed it, too, before adhering it on top of the leaf. The sentiment on the little banner is heat embossed as well and it says 'To Dad'. I adhered the panel with foam adhesives on top of a panel that I had ink blended with Distress Oxide inks in Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire. For embellishments, I used some silver gems.
I'm entering this to:
* Inkspirational: Challenge #328 - Layer It (I layered stamped images with heat embossed elements, stamped images with die cut images and panels on top of each other)
