What a blessed life. As I recall the memories of my childhood with my father, I feel so very blessed to still have him in my life. His humor has made me laugh, his love has provided comfort, and his anger has given me understanding. There is no greater man than a father. And my father is no exception.
For the three special father's in my life, I spent some time at my stamping table. My youngest daughter, Kaia, was my assistant this afternoon.
For my father-in-law, I chose the Clockworks stamp set and used the Soho Subway designer series paper. I really liked how the color combination on this card turned out (baked brown sugar, midnight muse, and smoky slate). He is a direction giver - and is always finding ways to teach my children something in everything they do. His time and energy are such a blessing for my children, and I am very thankful he freely gives his love and energy to them.
And lastly, for my knight in shining armor, Kaia and I used Modern Medley designer series paper, and a stamp from one of the Paper Pumpkin kits (I love these kits! I find myself using the stamps on many of my projects and they are a wonderful addition.) And of course, we couldn't resist using a little versa mark to put her footprint on the card (and emboss with black). Kaia loves to watch the magic happen when we emboss, and I really enjoy it too! It never gets old watching the powder melt and give the card just the right touch of elegance or "wow".
How did you show the men in your life you are thankful for them?
In His Grip,
Angi
