Woohoo! It's Friday! Here in the U.S. many of us are looking forward to a long weekend for Memorial Day, so hubby and I have plans to stain our deck. We sure know how to party, right? *wink*
If you have some stamping time this weekend, we'd love to have you join us for a new CAS-ual Fridays challenge! This week we're asking you to whip up something masculine, which would be the perfect chance to work on some Father's Day cards.
This week we're being sponsored by Gina K. Designs, and the Design Team got to work with the fun masculine papers from their Casual Friday paper pack! How cool is that?
I was immediately drawn to the paper that looks like denim and had the idea to make a patched "knee" for a masculine get well card.
I first took a piece of the denim patterned paper and folded the left edge under, stitching it to another strip of denim paper to make a seam.
I cut a square patch from the navy blue gingham, also from the Casual Friday paper pack, and stitched it in place, leaving the ends of the thread trailing across the card front.
The sentiment is from Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler, stamped in Real Red onto kraft cardstock and popped up with foam tape.
