Father's Day: Stepdad

Here is the second card I made for Father's Day. This one is for my stepdad. He is really into cars, so I knew I would be using Enjoy the Ride stamps.


I originally meant to have the card sitting on a road, but thought it was kind of fun and abstract to have it sitting out in a field. The tree in the background is from PTI Father Knows Best. I also used Lisa's magnet idea and included a magnet with the same car design on the front to coordinate with the card.

Here's a detail shot.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great, sunshine-filled day!


All supplies are Papertrey Ink, unless otherwise noted.
STAMPS: Father Knows Best, Masculine Motifs, Enjoy the Ride, Up, Up and Away, Grass (A Muse stamps)
INK: Ripe Avocado, Dark Chocolate, Terracotta Tile, Enchanted Evening, Fresh Snow
PAPER: Kraft
OTHER: Enjoy the Ride car die

HA ha! This card is great! Because that's where most of our old VW bugs are sitting, out in a field! HAHAHAH...great idea Monica, very clever. And those tufts of grass are perfect!

This is fabby! Somehow with the kraft paper - having the car sitting in the grass and the field just looks so perfectly right! The style of your tree is so brilliant with this too!

Love the softness of the colors & how the car is in the field instead of a road. Great design!
