Belated Father's Day post

Well you've noticed I haven't been around much, but I have gotten a few cards made in this time.  I was unable to post them for various reasons, but I'm gonna get to that now...  My first is a card I made for my dad, very late but made with loving thoughts just the same.  So without further ado -

I used a smooshed panel of Inka Gold, then cut using a cover plate.  The pieces were arranged, then a couple banners cut along with the letters.  All were applied to the cardstock, and here's the deets:

Dies:  PTI Harlequin cover plate, PTI Father's Day, PTI Smooth Alpha and My Craft Spot (closed) Banners: Straight.
Paper:  Essentials by Ellen woodgrain, Strathmore WC paper, PTI Smokey Shadow and scraps of blue
Other:  Inka Gold Steelblue and Silver

And in addition, a bunch of the dies are NBUS!  Yay!  I did it, Darnell!!!
Here's a close-up to see the texture a bit!

Well I've missed my Craft Room immensely, but even more all you sweet people out there.  Hopefully no one has given up on me, and I can post a few more cards...  Blessings to all, hope your week is going great.

Hugs,
TK

No one ever gives up on anyone, TK. We all get busy and take a break. I love the harlequin design and the banner. You were a My Craft Spot gal, too, I see.

I love those alpha dies!! And wouldn't you just know that I've shopped over at MFT already this morning....! Such a pretty card, TK. Those blues and silvers really pop against your card base. I'm guessing your dad loved it! Bev

Love the contrast with your warm and earthy background, paired with the elegance of the smooshed inka gold. Blue and brown are so wonderful together. I bet your dad loved his card. xx
