Happy Birthday, Dad!

It's my dad's 86th birthday on Sunday, and this is the card I made for him.  He does really like "unique fold" cards.  This one isn't terribly special, but at least it's something a little different:)

This is an easel card.  I was in a hurry to get the card done, and I actually found the card base all done in one of my "card parts" boxes.  That sure helped!  And I have a new motto - if in doubt for a masculine card - brayer and silhouette stamp!  I brayered with five colors of Stampin' Up! inks.  The reeds (grass?) and dragonfly stamps are from Technique Tuesday.  The sentiment is from All Night Media.  I cut the letters with an alphabet set from Cuttlebug - Baby Face.  I sponged a little ink around the edge of the "Dad" panel.  The matting paper is Soft Suede from Stampin' Up!
 
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
