Have Big Dreams–C4C #239

Hey, everyone! Welcome to this week’s Crazy 4 Challenges challenge! Today’s challenge is to make a masculine card—Father’s day is not far off so let’s get them done before the last minute :)

My card started off with a Steel Gray card stock base. Then I stamped up some “patterned paper” using Wood Plank background, stamped on Sweet Tooth card stock with Chocolate Brown ink, Kraft ink, and Grout Gray ink. I cut pieced from each color with Vertical Stitched Strips Die-namics and adhered them to the base card. Next, I cut a Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics from Kraft card stock and embossed it with MPD Houndstooth stencil and also adhered that. I stamped the sentiment, From Chalkboard Greetings Too on Black Licorice card stock with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossed with white embossing power, and popped it up on foam. I then added a Star STAX Die-namics cut from silver glitter paper and a Chocolate Brown button, a Kraft button, and a Natural button, all tied with hemp cord.

Another sentiment was stamped on the inside.
