'Reel'y Awesome Grandpa



Hi!  It's been awhile since my last post!  Life has been a bit crazy over the past month or so between warm weather activities, kindergarten orientation, and a trip to Disney World.  I did manage to make five Mother's Day cards and an anniversary card for my husband, but didn't have time to post them here on my blog (you can check them out on my Instagram @i.dream.in.purple).

Anyways, now I'm back and working on Father's Day, graduation, and birthday cards.  Here's my first creation, a card for my father-in-law that will be from my kids.  He LOVES to fish and has gotten my son interested as well.  It's their buddy time activity.  I created this for the Your Next Stamp Color Challenge #65, Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge (Masculine) and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge (Make It Masculine).


Supplies Used:
YNS Keepin It Reel stamp set
Lawn Fawn Dad + Me stamp set
Copic markers
white cardstock
Stampin' Up confetti white cardstock
SU pacific point cardstock
SU cool caribbean cardstock
Memento Tuxedo Black ink
SU ink pads: close to cocoa, garden green, really rust, going gray, pacific point
SU Crystal Effects (to make fish glossy)
oval punch
