Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Hope you all enjoy your shortened week if you have one.

Today’s card is the last card we made at my Stamp Camp card class last night. Everyone seemed to have a good time and left with some very handsome cards. For the last one I got a little harder, by not too hard. When my daughter saw this card she asked if it could be hers to give my husband for Father’s Day. I told her yes and she picked the inside sentiment. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hats Off Bundle for my card today along with the retiring Well Suited Designer Series Paper.

I played along with The Spot challenge #164 – Let’s Hear It For The Boys.

I started by adhering a panel of the Well Suited DSP to a Basic Gray card front on an angle using Stampin’ Seal. Using my Paper Snips, I trimmed off the DSP that was hanging over the card front. I adhered the card front to a Merry Merlot card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Merry Merlot cardstock I stamped the hat image from the Stampin’ Up! Hats Off Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the hat out using my Hat Builder Dies. On a scrap of Basic White cardstock I stamped the #1 image from the Hats Off stamp set in Basic Gray Ink and cut it out using my Hat Builder Dies. I adhered it to the hat using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered the hat to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few silver Metallic Pearls to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! A Good Man Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I cut the small hat out from the Hat Builder Dies from the panel of Merry Merlot cardstock and adhered it by the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Gray mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Merry Merlot card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I stamped the hat image from the Hats Off stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White Medium Envelope front. I stamped the ‘DAD’ sentiment from the Hats Off stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the hat. I adhered a panel of Well Suited DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
