Journey of Life

Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps.  This week is a Designer's Choice Challenge and Laurie has chosen: Tag It!

And here is the card I created:

I made this card for my dad for Father's Day.  He loves motorcycles, so this image is perfect for him.  I stamped the image on the tag; I love how it looks when it is partially stamped like this.  Then I used the same image and stamped it multiple times to create the background panel.  I heat embossed the sentiment in silver on the black panel, used a stencil to create the stripes on the card base, and layered everything together.  I finished off the tag with a piece of black suede lace and some black Nuvo drops.  The sentiment is a little hard to read, it says "The journey of life is made easier by the footprints of a father like you."  Ooo . . . I just really love how this turned out.

Thanks for stopping by!  Make sure you head on over to The House blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has done with this photo.  And if you "need" any of the stamps I used, check out my 10% off your entire order coupon code over in my lift sidebar.
