Fathers Day....

Today, I want to share with you the card and small gift holder that I have made for Fathers Day....I have had the Sail Away stamp from the mini catalogue since April, and confess this is its first use....I stamped it using Staz On Ink and then watercoloured with ink and an aqua blender. I used the square lattice folder to emboss the crumb cake layer and card stock is Pacific Point, Real Red and a touch of Night of Navy. Jumbo Eyelets and twill tape is my attempt to add a nautical feel to the card, and finally the Happy Fathers Day sentiment is from the 'Plane and Simple' set.


                                                

The gift holder is a Chocolate Bar Slider and again base colour is Pacific Point, I have stamped a self coloured pattern using a pattern stamp from 'A Good Egg' set, the belly band is made using real red card stock with some Pacific Point designer paper and a thin strip of Night of Navy and Crumb Cake. Fathers Day message is from the 'Occasional Greetings' set.  The small tag is made from the Designer Label Large punch, and I finished by attaching using linen thread and eyelets. The chocolate bar slides out and is wrapped around using twill tape. I used the instructions from the following link on You Tube to make my gift,  Chocolate Slider   I am hoping the 'Dads' enjoy......I will certainly be adapting the Slider Bar, for future projects!
