{5.24.2013} new stamp of the week for dads

DAD – don’t look.

{Unless you don’t want the surprise.  Mom, don’t let him look.  Heehee.}
I’m bloggin’ on the Unity blog today and wanted to share it here as well.

I’m using this week’s stamp of the week.  This is such a fun program.  For just $5.79, you get a brand new stamp delivered every week.  I just love getting that little envelope every week.

 

Lots of great father related stamps, right?  It is a great basic sentiment set that can be combined with almost any image.  LIKE…

what the buck

Don’t they go together like peas and carrots?
My dad is a hunter, fisher, camper and backpacker.
These WILD images are so perfect for him.

I needed a gift card holder so I used my Petaloo flowers to decorate one.

 I’m not a big technique freak, so this was super fun for me.  I brought out my spray inks and went to town.

First, I used some spray ink to cover the leaves.  Then, I unscrewed the top off the yellow spray ink and used the plastic part to dab on yellow ink.

After that dried, I used my favorite background stamp giving it all meaning to stamp over it in black.  Last, I added a black belly band around a kraft bag, cut a little tag and stamped the sentiment from the April 2013 KOM – you make my heart puffy.

Feeling pretty good to be this far ahead for Father’s Day!  Woo hoo, go me!
Have a great day!

    Fantastic Lisa, that buck stamp is incredible! Spray inks and me don’t mix so well… I get palpitations every time I add them to a finished design lol!
