I am blessed to have my hubby and my Uncle and Father in Law but at my Bling class I had to come up with a Guy's card... so I did. I miss my 'Ol' man'/Daddy and this is such a card he would like. He taught me much on Construction Sites. I am able, thanks to my Dad, to pipe a tub and create a custom jetting system fully... from drilling to piping to the electronic end of it.. lol.. the things he taught me....
This is a Black and Grey card... the Silver paper was run thru this Embossing Folder on my Big Shot. I sponged black into it to make it look darker and more like metal. With out the Black it is very 'fake' looking, almost, it is Silver paper but doesn't get that 'metal' look until you sponge in and rub in that black ink. I did it darker in some areas, just like you would see on a Chain Link Fence. With our Grey Ribbon I tied it up... the silver brads really nail it.. lol.
He may be in Heaven but I think my Dad probably smiled at this card and knew I was sending a lil love his way.
