Happy Father's Day!!!


My husband loves birds and since I make and send all cards for my son to DAD, thought the crane would work well. The base card is a light cream, as is the first layer which I stamped with 'Oriental Clouds' #3342J by Judikins, then die cut, embossed the 'Bamboo' #60020230 by Joy which I colored with Copics on top of the lime green 'Silk' card stock; the crane and cattails (colored with Copics) are die cuts by Tattered Lace out of cork...very delicate...I tried cutting with my Big Shot, but it tore apart - then successfully die cut with my CrossOver by Cheery Lynn Designs - no problem; the water is an 'Asian Cloud' die by Hanko #DD004. I layered with pop dots, glue and a prayer in the order listed above....ENJOY!
