Be Still and Know

 

 

Hi Friends!

This week the Design Team at Stamp Simply are sharing Mother’s Day and/or Father’s Day cards!

I decided to create a Father’s Day card that could be sent to one of the pastors at our church or to a friend of mine who loves the ocean.

I pulled out the Graphic 45 Catch of the Day 8x8 paper pad as well as two different stamp sets, dies and other accessories all from Stamp Simply!

I hope you have time to check out the rest of the projects from the Design Team – fabulous inspiration by all!

This card was created by heat embossing the “Be Still” sentiment from the Farmhouse Scriptural Quotes with clear embossing before die cutting with the Fishtail Sentiment Banners Dies.

The main lighthouse image and backgrounds are from the Catch of the Day G45 8x8paper pad.  The edges were distressed lightly before layering onto the dark blue cardstock.  FYI- Black Soot Distress Oxide ink was sponged over the edges before layering the distressed panels onto the cardstock.

I decided to create an easel card so that the card could be displayed year round (possibly on the recipient’s desk, if they prefer).

As many of you who follow my blog know that I enjoy participating with online challenges.  I am linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #5834-#584 “Anything Goes” Challenge.
