Happy Birthday Dad!

Hi and Happy Valentine's Day!

It's also my Dad's birthday today so I'm going to share the card I made for him...

I have used the Wetlands stamp set again, while I still have it on loan from Jen! I sponged the background using Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi, then stamped the birds. The goose was stamped in Early Espresso and I sponged Chocolate Chip ink over it to make it look 'real'. I then cut it out to give some dimension and interest.

I used my new Hardwood stamp for the background, stamping it with Sahara Sand onto Sahara Sand cardstock. I added some Crumb Cake Seam Binding across the middle and finished with my sentiment and a wooden button from the Designer Naturals buttons.

I used the sketch at Mojo Monday as my inspiration...

I do have a Valentine card to show you at some point this weekend, but it was a commission so I have to be sure it was given to the recipient before I can blog it!

Have a wonderful day today, whatever you're up to!
