Simple Fathers Day!

Masculine Fathers Day Card
Can you believe that Fathers Day is just around the corner!  It will be here before we know it. We need to spoil him to show our appreciation for all he does, and has done for us.

Hello Stampers!

I have another challenge card for you, I have been on a kick of these lately as my pintrest ideas are starting to run out.  I like to make every card unique so make the same ones over and over are not nearly as much fun.  Although sometimes my Etsy followers ask for the standard StampinINK favorites.

The gold and black are such a wonderful combination and popular this year.  The Rose Garden framelit is glitter and I added multiple layers to pop it up more off the page.

Supplies:
Tools: Rose Garden Framelit, Circle Framelit

Accessories: Button, Ribbon
Paper: Lullaby Designer Series Paper, Gold Glitter Paper, Basic Black
