Hero Arts Father's Day Card by Kelly

Posted by ScrapbookPal Inc on May 16, 2022

Hi Friends! Kelly Fusco here & for today I'm using Hero Arts Mother & Father Animals Stamp & die set. This is such a sweet set. I LOVE hugging animals!

To start off I stamped my image onto 80lb Neenah cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I also stamped the sentiments with Versafine Onyx & heat embossed them with clear Embossing powder on top.

I spaced them apart so I could make them into strips.

I colored my image with Copic markers E31,E33,E34 and E37,E27,E59 and R01 for the ears/cheeks.

I used Distress ink in Tea Dye to add a tint of color to my sentiment strips then I cut them out and punched a TINY hole to them to allow for my thread to fit through.

For my background panel I used Distress spray stains in:

Carved Pumpkin, Vintage Photo & Gathered Twigs.

Once dry I added some ink blending with the Harlequin Shifter stencil with Distress ink in Vintage photo. I then added Crackle paste and let dry then a bit of Distress crayon in the Vintage photo color as well.

The last step was to thread my sentiments and tie it around the top of my panel & add a bow.

I mounted my bears with foam tape along with the Happy Fathers day sentiment. I Mounted panel onto a matching cardbase

Then added a few iridescent gems & done!
