JUST FOR FUN - CONSULTANT CHALLENGE, ASCC1-May2011

This is my first participation in a challenge.  The challenge is to create a card using the recessed window technique.  Below is a link to Julie's video tutorial for this technique.  The hard part for me was trying to come up with a theme.  Well, with Father's Day around the corner, I thought I would make a special card.

Now, who doesn't love to win prizes?!?!  The winner of this challenge gets a free a|s stamp set.  I wish everyone taking this challenge the best of luck.  I've seen some beautiful cards!!



FATHER'S DAY CARD



Stamp set:  tool-rific, essential sentiments
Cardstrock:  Vanilla, French Roast
Ink:  French Roast
Embellishments:  French Roast Twill

NOTE:  The "Happy Father's Day" stamp in the essential sentiments set is a single lined stamp.  I masked the "day" and then "happy father's" to create the double lined sentiment.
