Best Dad Ever!

Hey there. Another lovely sunny day today for us here in Yorkshire which is good as our eldest son has a cricket match for school and he has been asked to captain the school team! So proud of him!

Thought I would start sharing the male cards with you from last weeks Stamp a Stack event (next one is Friday 24th May). This was my favourite card of the evening and one I totally CASED from the "what would we do without" Pinterest site!

I love the colour combo of Bashful Blue, Summer Starfruit, Night of Navy, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. Bashful Blue (the pale blue) is leaving us soon so please get your orders in for this if you need to stock up your card supplies

I have used 3 stamp sets on this card, Dapper Dad (watch), Beyond Plaid (checked background) and Best Dad Ever (sentiment)

Right I must dash as I have my club orders to pack and dish out!

 Card – Crumb Cake, Bashful Blue, Night of Navy, Very Vanilla, Summer Starfruit

Papers – First Edition

Stamps – Dapper Dad, Best Dad Ever, Beyond Plaid

Embellishments – Summer Starfruit ribbon, Midnight Muse ribbon

Tools – Chevron Embossing folder, Big Shot

Mediums – Summer Starfruit ink, Night of Navy ink

Stamp a Stack part 2

Hello again and welcome back to part 2 of the Stamp a Stack card showcase! This card was a male themed card and probably took the longest out of all of the 6 designs.

I have used the very very popular Honeycomb Embossing folder for the Very Vanilla background and layered it onto an Old Olive card blank. The squares were created with the Beyond Plaid stamp set and then punched out with the 1 3/8 square punch. The colours are Old Olive, Not Quite Navy and Chocolate Chip.

Some LInen Thread and a Naturals button were then added around the card.

The cute little sentiment is from A Fitting Occasion. You stamp the circle greeting first and then add the little symbols into the centre, using the trusty Stamp-a-ma-Jig! I chose to use the little tie in Not QUite Navy on this one!

Thats it from me today. We have our monthly Team Training tonight and tomorrow - which I am already prepped up for so I will be ticking other jobs off from the to do list today!
