Lovely as a Tree Father's Day

So today's card is kinda late, but here it is! This week has not been good for creating and blogging :(

 

I saw Amy K's Woodgrain frame the other day, and have wanted to do something similar ever since, so I decided the sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday would be a great place to try it. The twist for the sketch was to make a masculine card, so I made a father's day card.

 

Recipe

Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Hardwood, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Ink: Soft Suede

Paper: Soft Suede, Pear Pizzaz, Naturals White card stock

Misc: Neutrals Candy Dots, Natural 5/8" Chevron Ribbon
