Father's Day Card

     My dad has always attracted animals of all kinds, but especially birds, so I made him this card featuring the See Beauty cling mount rubber stamp set from Red Rubber Designs, getting a head start on Father's Day!


     I stamped and layered the duck image with white and kraft cardstock, coloring it with Distress Inks, and spraying the background of the kraft cardstock with some brown sprays. Then I stamped some trees using the Tree Silhouettes cling mount rubber stamp set, going over the trunks and branches with a brown marker.

     I was very pleased with the piece where I stamped my sentiment using the Contemporary Greetings unmounted rubber stamp set, and mixing green and brown Magicals to create my background, which gave it some texture as well. I also used brown Magicals and sprays added to some clear gesso, to mask a strip of drywall tape along the bottom.



So get started on your Father's Day cards, and find your perfect image at Red Rubber Designs!

  1. Good job, Drea! I like the addition of the trees, and the curled edges is tough and masculine.
