Simon Says.............It's Masculine / Father's day




Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge !! Thank you for joining us for the  Anything Goes Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too :-)

This week the challenge is ,,,,,,,,

MASCULINE / FATHER'S DAY

As it is Father's Day on the 16th we are dedicating this challenge to all the boys/men in our lives.
Anything Masculine is OK :-)

We are showcasing Tim Holtz products this week, you don't have to use them, but if you have them we would love to see them  :-)

As always Heidi will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store!



I used Bazzill Cardstock Nuetrals (brown) and.Sea Glass. I used a Tim Holtz's alterations Plaque & Postage and inked the edges with Adirondack ink with Espresso.
The Tim Holtz is embossed using Brick & Woodgrain. I made a panel on the front  with Tim's Floral Border, again using the Espresso Ink.
I used Simon's Exclusive Apothecary Labels for a sentiment -  I masked a sentiment from Simons May Card Kit Card Kit and Every Elle's All Occasions Tag set , I used a button (pinched off one of my suit jacket - the only one to find one the right colour) and tied it with Hemptique Vintage Natural Hemp Cord set
The Martha Stewart Cherish was used to creatae the fish tale tag.
I photographed this card 1001 times but still didn't get one satisfactory - it looks much nicer in RL.

I like this with the way the colours work together & the brick embossing especially. Super way with the shaped edges - reminding me of a very large postage stamp!!
