Father's Day Card

I've not had much time this week for getting extra stamping done. We are finally getting the garden planting finished after having rain almost everyday!  Then of course there is all the yard work and babysitting!  I'm not complaining! though!  After thawing mom's water line out in 0 degree weather last January, this is just fine!  Brooklyn and I had a good time this evening when I babysat while her mother ran to the store.  She decided that I would play church songs on the piano while she used her play microphone to sing Katie Perry songs and other lyrics she made up!  It was quite entertaining!

I still needed a quick Father's Day card so I pulled out "By the Tide".  I stamped the fish with versamark and embossed with the now retired Pewter embossing powder.  Then I sponged with Island Indigo and Wild Wasabi for the water effect.  Some Island Indigo Baker's Twine wrapped 3 times and tied in a knot  gives it the finishing touch!  The sentiment is from the old stand by, Teeny Tiny Wishes.

It's a pretty simple card but then I think guys tend to like that.  They don't appreciate all that fluffy stuff we add to OUR cards, lol!
