Hopefully My Dad Never Comes Here....

Okay, the only reason I hope he doesn't come here (at least before March 13th) is because this is HIS birthday card that I am showing today! I really enjoyed making this card and to be honest that is a big surprise because making masculine cards are not my favorite thing to do, but this one was fun. I had this really cute camping stamp set from Storage Units, Ink and More which gave me the trees and male image. I used Bazzill kraft cardstock for the card base, then I added AC Cardstock, Basic Grey paper and DCWV paper as well. I used a $1 stamp from Michaels for the "Happy Birthday" and Websters Pages letters for "dad". I paper pieced the stamped guy's shirt as well as his suspenders and collar. I used large foam squares to make him pop off of the card.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Very cute! You put a lot of work into this. I don't think I'll ever get the hang of paper piecing.
