A Sentimental Journey

A frosty mug ...

When I saw this card by fellow demonstrator Andrea Walford, I just knew it would be the perfect Father's Day card for my husband.  Unfortunately, I didn't have all of the Stampin' Up! supplies on hand that she used for her card so I had to improvise.  Here's the result ...

Stamps:  Cheers To You

Ink:  Classic - Chocolate Chip, Basic Black

Paper:  Cardstock - Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Whisper White; Designer Series Paper - So Saffron Prints (retired), Chocolate Chip Patterns

Tools & Accessories:  Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write Marker, Crafter's Tool Kit, Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon, Scallop Circle Punch, Paper Snips, Big Shot, Naturally Serif Alphabet Sizzlits Decorative Strip, Fresh Favorites II Buttons, SNAIl, Tombo Multi-purpose Liquid Glue, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin' Dimensionals

I'm not sure if you can see it in the photograph, but I stamped the beer's foam on Whisper White Cardstock, cut it out with Paper Snips, then adhered it with a Stampin' Dimensional for emphasis.

Happy Father's Day to dads everywhere!

A chocolate chip Father's Day ...

Here's another simple card in our Patterns Designer Series Paper feature, only this one uses the Chocolate Chip Patterns DSP ...

Once again, I turned to the Color Coach for a color combination that works well with Chocolate Chip.  And I'm now ready for Father's Day with a card for my Dad well in advance of the holiday; now that's something that rarely happens!
