I made this card for my favorite Sunday challenge of Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge 43, which was to make a Father's Day card. My layout is loosely based on Card Positioning Systems 171, Part 1. I wanted to go very clean and simple on this card because let's face it, guys aren't really into bling, flowers, lace, and all of those beautiful embellishments that we like. I think this turned out on the masculine side quite nicely. Unfortunately, Stampin' Up! Sage Shadow does not photograph well, which I used on the top of my card. Even though this color is retiring, it's one I'm holding onto for now. I'll have a couple more Father's Day cards for you to look at tomorrow!
God bless!
