Quite a while ago I removed most of my stamps from their wooden bases to save a ton of room and I put them in clear cases with a sample stamping and the manufacturer's name but some of them got by me and this is one of those that slipped by so I can't tell you who the stamp is from. What I can tell you is that I love it and really think it makes for a great masculine card. Almost every Sunday during the summer months my son and DIL try to get to the beach to relax for a few hours and then have dinner by the ocean so I thought that this was the perfect image for his Father's Day card. I used Very Vanilla, Basic Grey and a tiny mat of Basic Black all by SU!. The background paper is from my stash and it was a small piece so I was able to use it up. For the larger mat I stamped it with the Weathered background stamp by SU! (another Oldie but a Goodie) with Crumb Cake Ink. I decided to add three gold brads to even things off. That will do it for me today. I thank you for paying me a visit and I wish you all a great night and rest of the week.
A fabulous card Donna, a super image - how lovely to be able to make such a personal card.

I don't know who makes that stamp either but I love it. The patterned paper and the wood grain background make it so pretty. You son is going to love this Donna.

Beautiful card - and great using up all those scraps! Have a great day Donna!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card for your son! I love how you stamped the image on designer paper and I love the background too. I'm pretty sure that's a SU! background stamp called "weathered" because I have one and LOVE it too! Have fun with those oceanside lunches - I wish I could join you :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic design, Donna! The unmounted mess at my house is not to be believed. Just ask Carol! Some things are just classics, and I do believe the SU! backgrounds are among that group. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful design and card, very masculine and a lovely story as to why you made it.

ReplyDeleteI am loving your card Donna, the papers are perfect for a masculine card as is the image. Sounds like this card is just perfect for your son Donna! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteMarvelous card, Donna! I love the beach theme and that it fits so well for your son. :-D I will no doubt be MIA for the next couple of weeks since I leave early on Friday for the next round of vacation travel. I'll visit if and when I can while I'm gone but will check in for sure when I get back. :-D
ReplyDeleteCool guy card. Love how you stamped on the designer paper, great technique. Hope all is well with you.
