My third card from May's Card Class.....

Hey there, well we're onto the third card from May's Card Class.  Sometimes, I just don't know how I fit in four cards, but I do!!  This card was made with Fathers Day in mind, but you could use this for any male occasion.


I love the colours on this card, and I saw the original design on Julie Kettlewell's blog (Julie's Japes), but tweaked it slightly for my own style!  I love men's cards, but they always seem to be quite muted colours, so I've used Baja Breeze, More Mustard and Cherry Cobbler!  It's a shame as Baja Breeze and More Mustard will be retiring soon, I'm so going to miss Baja Breeze!!

Rather than using the Classic Ink Pads for this card, I've used the Stampin' Write Markers and the huffing technique.  I've coloured each of the ties with the Stampin' Write Markers, then I've breathed (huffed) on the stamp.  This is the technique to use if you want different colour wording etc.  Why don't you try it!!
