PDCC136: Happy Fathers Day with Extreme Elements

Such pretty colors this week at the Play Date Cafe color challenge. The colors were Azure, Raspberry and Blackberry. I used Marina Mist, Elegant Eggplant and Rich Razzleberry. To create the background, I used reinkers on waxed paper. I placed a few drops of ink on the waxed paper, spritzed it with water and then laid a piece of cardstock over the ink. I then randomly stamped images from the SU Extreme Elements stamp set.

FMS39: Happy Fathers Day with Lovely As A Tree

Great sketch from Freshly Made Sketch challenge. I needed to make a Father's Day card and I thought this layout would be great with the Lovely As a Tree stamp from Stampin' Up! I also used Faux Suede technique to create the vertical panel to create some additional texture. For the tree image, I colored the stamp with SU watercolor crayons, spritzed it with water and then stamped on watercolor paper. Thanks for looking.
