Father's Galore

Using an image from the days of yore does not imply that your father is ancient, but that he is older than you and always will be! Laugh and celebrate the wonderful memories that you share. What do you think?

   All Year Cheer II

Paper:

   Gable Green A-2, 3-3/4 x 4

   Green Galore 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

   Green Galore

Technique:

   Dry Embossing

Accessories:

   1/2" Green & Blue Ribbon (2)

   Sizzix Ellison Embossing Folder

   Stamp-a-ma-jig

   Archival Black Pen 005

   Sponge

   Adhesive

First, I dry embossed the bottom of the Green Galore panel.

I then sponged it to accentuate the embossing.

I drew a black line on the top of the embossing to represent a road.

Next, I used a stamp-a-ma-jig to align my stamp for a precise placement. I stamped the image and then the sentiment.

I added ribbon on the top and bottom of the panel.

I then adhered the panel onto the card base, and added the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Sentimental Greetings

This is definitely a "Blast from the Past." You do not see these telephone booths anymore unless you are watching old Superman movies or a black and white feature. I remember carrying a dime and then a quarter in my shoe, just in case I needed to make a call. Now, I carry my cell phone and make sure it is charged. What do you remember? Do you even recollect telephone booths? Maybe you saw the Alfred Hitchcock movie, The Birds. 

Sentimental Greetings

   Feeling Sentimental

   Playful Pieces

   A Dozen Thoughts

Paper:

   Crumb Cake A-2

   Calypso Coral 5-1/4 x 4

   Daffodil Delight 3-1/2 x 2-1/2

   Irresistibly Yours DSP 3-1/4 x 2-1/4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

   VersaMark

Markers:

   Soft Sky

   Daffodil Delight

   Calypso Coral

   Crumb Cake

Technique:

   Emboss Resist

   Punching

Accessories:

   1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon

   Itty Bitty Accents Punch

   Tacky Tape/Stamping Seal+

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I randomly stamped a star using VersaMark on the Calypso Coral panel. This created a star watermark. I then set this panel aside.

Next, I took my Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper and colored it using the markers listed above. I then wiped the panel down using a paper towel. This removed the ink on the white embossed stars. If you do not have this DSP you can create one using an emboss resist technique.

I then adhered this panel to the Daffodil Delight panel. This was adhered to the Calypso Coral panel using dimensionals.

I stamped my sentiment in the center of the seam binding ribbon and adhered it onto the Calypso Coral panel, right under the image panel. I used a strong adhesive. (Stamping Seal+)

This panel was then adhered to the Crumb Cake card front.

I punched out two stars from Soft Sky scraps, using the Itty Bitty Accents Punch and adhered them using dimensionals.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card. 

Here is a close-up image of each of the cards.
