Father's Day and CCCB Guest Designer

Today I am thrilled to be guest designing at the City Crafter Challenge Blog!  This week's challenge is to use banners.  I loved the inspiration photo, so soft and beautiful!  I decided to move my banners in a different direction, however, in order to prepare for Father's Day.  My father is the true inspiration behind this card, he really was the best dad ever!  I am thankful to say that my husband holds the same title for our girls:  



The card base is from Paper Studio, the wood grain is from MME Miss Caroline, and the aqua is from a paper pad from Momenta called Cardstock.  I cut the "DAD", banners, and tools on the Silhouette.  The tools were a Silhouette cut file called Tool Set.  The tool handles were cut from red cs, and the tools were cut from white paper and then colored with a silver Sharpie marker.  I punched a tiny hole in some of the tools in order to string them.  The word, "best" from "best wishes", a stamp from the PTI stamp set Mega Mixed Messages, was heat embossed onto a red scrap of cs cut into a banner.  The word, "DAD" is popped up with foam tape, and so are the ends for the banners. 

You should see the gorgeous and amazing projects that the design team created over at City Crafters Challenge Blog!  Please join us this week with your banner creations, and thank you so much for visiting my blog today! 

Have a wonderful day!
