Father’s Day Inspiration Week- Day 4

Hello Friends! Elaine here today to share a Father’s Day project featuring products from the May release.

To start my card, I stamped the small stamps in the Dad stamp set directly on to marker friendly cardstock.  The panel measured 4”x5.25”.  I used a small acrylic block to stamp the spanner, hammer, and screwdriver repeatedly all over the panel, making sure some images hang over the edge.

I coloured the images with copic markers in the following colours:

  • Hammer: E49, E47, E44 (handle), C5, C7, C3 (hammer head)
  • Screwdriver: C10, C7, C5 (handle), C5, C3 (screwdriver head)
  • Spanner: W6, W4, W3

To fill in some of the blank space on the card I used some confetti stamps from Let’s Party and stamped them randomly in the gaps in black and grey colored dye inks.

On the same copic friendly cardstock, I stamped the large DAD image and coloured with E29, E27, E25.  Using the Dad coordinating die, I cut the letters out. I secured the large DAD letters to a piece of vellum along with a sentiment which was white heat embossed on black cardstock and trimmed into a strip.  

I placed some foam tape behind the sentiment and DAD letters and secured it to the middle of the patterned tool card panel.

The whole piece was then adhered to a dark grey A2 card base.  With some of the left over images and card stock I created a quick tag using the smallest tag in the Scallop Square Tag die set.

I hope you like this card, I always struggle to make masculine style cards, but this stamp set makes it so easy because of those perfectly themed images.

Happy crafting! Hugs, Elaine
