Rooted In Nature Masculine Father’s Day Card
I chose a stamp set that you may already have in case you are wanting to make a good Father’s Day card for Sunday or a masculine card for any other occasion. Not that it has to be for a man. This is the Rooted In Nature Stamp Set, I suppose the substitute for Lovely As a Tree, not that there will ever be a substitute for Lovely As a Tree!
This card just uses a card base of Soft Suede Cardstock with a layer of Old Olive. After playing around with the card design a little, I stamped a few leaves from Rooted In Nature randomly on the Old Olive. I actually used Mint Macaron Ink stamped off to get a light color. Usually, I would use the same color of ink but today I tried something different.
The tree is inked up with Stampin’ Write Markers! I just chose several colors of green markers plus Delightful Daffodil yellow. I usually like to put a little yellow in with the green when making leaves or trees. I just kind of scribbled on all of the colors starting with the yellow and then light to darker green colors. I added some Early Espresso marker for the branches. Be sure to “huff” (breathe) on the stamp when you color with markers to moisten the ink before stamping. I think my tree turned out pretty well! It’s always a bit of a surprise because you can’t entirely tell what you are going to get as you are putting down the marker colors!
I die cut the tree with the Nature’s Roots Dies. The layer behind it is a die from the new Tasteful Labels Dies. And behind that is a Copper Foil layer die cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.
The greeting is stamped from the Rooted In Nature Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink on Whisper White Cardstock and layered on Soft Suede Cardstock. If you wanted to make the card even easier, you could just stamp the tree on Whisper White and cut it into a rectangle one way or another and layer it on another piece. No die-cutting involved!
This is a good card to make and have on hand in your stash. Leave off the greeting and add one when you are ready to send the card. Maybe you have a Happy Father’s Day greeting for Sunday! But this greeting would work great for a Father’s Day card as well! And you could even use some of the other greetings in the stamp set.
Be sure you get a Father’s Day card made today to give to Dad tomorrow!
Happy Father’s Day!
