Father's Day with Joy Clair

Today I have a double project for you! I have made TWO Father's day cards using Joy Clair Stamps. 

Check out all the great Father's Day ideas from Joy Clair's design team HERE!

This first card I made using a few new stamp sets:  Light House, Classic Father's Day and Life's A Breeze.




I began with my card base. I used a die to cut this flip card. I stamped my boat on the square flip with VersaFine Clair black ink and colored it with Leisure Arts Premium Colored Pencils I then blended it out with some Gamsol and some paper stumps. I cut some patterned paper with the card dies accessory dies and attached them to the card base.




I stamped the "Happy Father's Day" sentiment with black VersaFine Clair ink and added some faux enamel dots.  Lastly, I added some details on the art part of the card with some white gel pen and some Glossy Accents. I let it dry and I was done with card number one.




I made another Father's Day card with Joy Clair and their fun sentiment stamp set called, "Hello Sentiments".  I use this set all the time for my sentiments. It covers just about every holiday and also some "just because" holidays.



Since I have 2 Father's to make cards for Father's day I made this tool one. My Father in-law is a handy guy and this card is perfect for him.  I used some tool dies I had on hand. Die cut them with some brown card stock and some silver shinny paper.


I stamped the words "happy Father's Day" with the "Hello Sentiments" stamp set from Joy Clair and black ink using my MISTI to get the words straight.


After I cut out all the tools I arranged them on the stamped card, glued them down and I was done!!



I hope you like my versions of  Father's Day cards! I think they came out so cool!
Happy Crafting!

  3. Terrific masculine cards! Great card layouts and I love the "extra" touches of the flip card and silver card for the tools.
