Happy Father's Day

Every year Father's Day sneaks up on me. It always just seems to come out of nowhere. Our son's birthday is in May, our wedding anniversary is in early June, and school ends (for my hubby, who is a teacher) either end of May or early June. So Father's days always just seems to get lost in the shuffle somewhere. Well believe it or not - I actually am on top of things this year and have been able to get some Father's Day cards done already. Usually I'm doing them on Father's Day eve and mailing them on post-Father's Day Monday.


My Father-In-Law is a Harley Davidson FANATIC. Although he lives in NY - where that funny white stuff falls from the sky 1/2 of the year - he rides at every opportunity he can. Actually owns two motorcycles - can only ride one - but owns two - Go figure. Well Great Impressions had this terrific stamp of a vintage looking bike - Saw it and just thought of Doug.


I used Kraft paper, Bashful Blue, Chocolate Chip and a retired SU Designer Paper (I can't remember the name AND can't find an older catalog). I ran the bashful blue through the Big shot with the texture plates and then sponged some chocolate chip ink over it for some additional dimension. I also used some crystal effects on the tank of the bike.

Enjoy and Happy Father's Day !!
