Whimisical Wednesday Challenge ~ Father's Day

Hello and welcome to another Whimsical Wednesday Challenge. This week we are featuring Father's Day. It can be your Father or any other wonderful man in your life. I am so fortunate to have such an amazing Dad. He is "My Hero".

I actually used my Imagine for the background paper. I even challenged myself with using the colors I chose... not typically my favorites but tried to make it masculine. I couldn't resist and add just a little bling.. sorry Dad those gems were calling me! When I saw this stamp I had to have it and I knew for months how I was going to use it. It totally defines my Dad. So here was my take on the challenge.



I couldn't resist but to make my card match my milk container from a previous post. I hope you enjoy!

Materials:
Cartridges: Imagine "Best Friends" and C.C. "Stand and Salute"
Stamps: PTI "Star Prints" and "My Hero, My Dad"
Paper: PTI and Bazzill
Other: PTI Dies, Zing embossing powder, PTI gems, foam, MS micro beads and ink.

This week our sponsor is Joy from Joy's Life. One random winner will receive Joy's stamp set called "Your So Punny". Please click here to Joy's product page. Thank You Joy!
