Now that we have passed Father's Day, I can share the card that I made for my father this year. Granted, he is not a biker at all, but I still think any man would think this card is pretty cool! Card details:*All supplies are always linked at the end of each post for your convenience. This is an A2 sized card. The white cardstock base was made from 80 lb. Neenah Solar White Smooth. I cut a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of the same Neenah White cardstock and created my ink blended background. First I blended three Distress Oxide inks Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey and Fired Brick from top to bottom. Then I used the Tiger Stripes Stencil from Whimsy Stamps and used both Wild Honey and Fired Brick Distress Oxide ink to ink over the stencil to create the stripes (or what I thought looked like flames). I die cut the block letters "Rad Dad" from both black cards stock and an orangey/red glitter cardstock. I layered to two colors together, slightly offsetting the black cardstock for a shadow look. These block letter dies are from the Bold ABC dies from Whimsy Stamps. I adhered the letters to the card and then heat embossed the motorcycle with gold embossing powder on black cardstock. I fussy cut the motorcycle out and adhered it to the center of the card. I stamped the "Bad to the Bone" sentiment and banner in Tuxedo Memento Black ink and colored it with Copic Markers. I adhered the banner over the motorcycle. Lastly I stamped the small skull and flames at the bottom of the card with Tuxedo Memento Black ink. I ended up liking this first card so I much that I wanted to create a more feminine/girly version! So I kept the layout the same, I simply swapped out the Distress Oxide ink colors for Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry and Rich Preserves. I die cut the letter for "Bad A$$" from black cardstock and silver glitter cardstock. Minus the sassiness of the second card (I had to find three letters that would fit keeping in line with the theme!) I hope you agree these cards are pretty wildl! Thanks for visiting and have a wonderfully creative day! XO, CrystalSupplies used:
