Happy Father's Day Cactus


Hello and welcome!

I made a Father's Day card for my FIL - can't believe I actually got one done early!
I used a cactus print from an old Simon Says Stamp kit along with a Darice Brick embossing folder, cross-stitched circle dies, Copics, Versafine Clair and GKD Amalgam inks.

I used the baby wipe technique with Distress Ink re-inkers and slid them down the embossed panel for a cool textured background, then after coloring the cactus, I added it to the brick.  All the elements were popped up with foam tape.  The sentiment is from a brand new Father's Days set from Joy Clair called Best Dad Ever stamp set.  Here's a close up look:


Thanks so much for stopping by!
