SweetStamps.com Father's Day Challenge... Win goodies from the store!

Hello and welcome to this weeks challenge at SweetStamps.com: Father's Day Challenge...  Remember to play along with us for your chance to win a shopping spree!!! ( They carry everything so you def. will want to win )  Here is my take on the challenge:



I made my frame using the same stamp (Three Stripes Border) that I made my stripes that you see along the bottom of this card.  I simply embossed it three times in black and then measured and cut to fit around my image.

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Three Stripes Border, Gentleman Joe, Retro Father's Day
Watermark Stamp pad
Embossing Powder: Fine Detail Black
Ink: Shades Ink Spots ( Forest ) and Memento Black
Copics
Fiskars Punch
Ribbon: American Crafts

I am also entering this into the Really Reasonable Ribbons Challenge #73: Masculine with Ribbon/Trim 
and Simon Says Stamp: Anything Goes Challenge

Can't wait to see your projects this week and thanks for visiting my page!
Happy Crafting!
Lisa
