Dad Is the Best Card

With Father's Day coming up in the weekend, there's no better card to make for both the Simon Says Stamp Monday and Wednesday Challenges with the theme "masculine cards".

I really like the Tim Holtz Retro Circles embossing folder and how the Heidi Swapp Color Shine in Gold looks against a textured black cardstock. I decided to keep the card somewhat simple with just a couple of stars and alphabet diecuts from a Lawn Fawn set.

Overall, I like the card and I don't do "masculine" themes very often. I usually tend to lean towards softer, more feminine colors or pastels but I think doing something a little different is quite fun and challenges your creativity.
