Geometric Father's Day Card

When you think of making a masculine card, the words pretty, pink and posh may not be the first ones to come to mind! But here's proof that Pretty Pink Posh products can make a perfect patterned card for pop! (see what I did there? lol!)

I started by cutting 5 of the zig-zag border die from Stacked Edges 1 and blending Juniper Mist ink over them. Then I lined up 3 of them and blended the same ink darker on each 'half' of a zig (or is it a zag?).

I blended darker ink on the opposite halves of the other 2 strips - this will give my pattern that look of dimension.

I glued them on a panel of white cardstock, and then trimmed everything with the stitched rectangle die from Stitched Notes.

I blended a larger panel of white cardstock with Sauna, Rouge and Juniper mist inks and cut the stitched rectangle die from the centre, to create a frame around my blue and white panel (and to save most of the blended panel for another card project!)

For the sentiment, I cut a stitched circle and stitched oval from Stitched Essentials 1 and I stamped the sentiment from Father's Day on the circle. I blended Sauna and Rouge ink on the oval and then I 'extended' it by cutting it in half and putting the two pieces on some tape, with a small space between the two halves.

I finished with 3 Midnight jewels - these are black with an iridescent shine.
