WMSC 3

Hi all, I have today an entry for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge. It's a Father's Day card for my husband, I have to confess that I completely forgot about this important day what with all the shenanigans of last week!
Here's the sketch :


And here's my take:




I have used a piece of dark green pearlescent cardstock for the card base, and layered different patterned papers together to make a panel, and cut an aperture in the panel using Nestabilities Labels 11. Attached that to the card, and cut another label in gold cardstock, and die-cut the word DAD in brown metallic Bazzill using a Sissix alphabet and the Sissix Side-Kick.



I Stamped the sentiment using Fancy Phrases by WMS and Memento Rich Cocoa. The sentiment strip on the paper says 'Fathers build dreams out of paper aeroplanes', but I had to cut the end off. Stamped 3 little hearts from the Earthangel set, also by WMS. Filled in 2 of the hearts with Ranger Glossy Accents, and added a heart shaped rhinestone to the middle heart.



Instead of a big girly bow, I added a shell shaped button, and tied a little bow through it, so hope fully it won't dent his manly pride lol!

I used some of the patterned paper inside edged with a Martha Stewart edger punch and some more patterned paper.

Finally finished off with some gold stickles around the scalloped ends of the window in the panel, which I should have done before I stuck the DAD label on top!

Happy Fathers Day to daddies all over the world, and all you mummies that have to make the cards!
