Hello friends, welcome to a brand new week! I'm here to share the card I made for my father-in-law for Father's Day. I loved the MFT sketch this week so that was my inspiration.
Here is my card:
here is a close up of the cute critters:
I began by die cutting the city scene twice and adding yellow card behind one and grey card behind the other. I wanted a sunray background but didn't have a stencil large enough for my 5 x 7 card so I used masking magic to create my own (it's a little bit lopsided but I think it looks ok). The images were stamped and coloured with Promarkers and fussy cut out. I stamped both the sentiments in Versafine onyx black ink and die cut them out. I added the first city scene with liquid glue and added the second one over top with foam tape. The image were added with foam tape and the strip sentiment and clouds were adhered with liquid glue. The 2nd sentiment was also added with foam tape. Quite a lot of dimension on this card but it looked really cool in real life.
There are still lots of men/boy challenges around so my card fits into quite a lot this time:
Daisy Chain challenge - no design paper
Cardz for Guyz challenge - Father's day
Alphabet challenge - F is for flying
SSS Monday challenge - masculine
SSS Wednesday challenge - lots of layers
Cutie Pie challenge - dads or lads
Fab 'n' Funky challenge - use a sentiment
MAWTT challenge - man/boy
Pearly Sparkles challenge - make it masculine
Creative Moments challenge - boys and men
Shopping our Stash challenge - let's hear it for the boys
Scrapping 4 Fun challenge - men/boys
Phew! That's a lot of challenges! I don't think I've entered so many in one hit for a very long time.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving me such lovely comments. I really do appreciate it.
Love and hugs,

What a fun and unique Father's Day card. I love all the layering, especially the city silhouette. It's a wonderful contrast to the flying superheroes in the upper part of your creation. The sunrays in the background create a nice connection between those two parts of the card, and make your project look like something straight out of a comic book. The bold black frame brings everything together nicely. What an great gift for your father in law, you two must have a wonderful relationship. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.
Hugs, Veronika
