Easel Father’s Day Card – Wild & Sweet

Here’s an easel Father’s Day Card with Wild & Sweet stamp set. Wild & Sweet stamps resemble etched drawings of a panda, racoon and koala. You don’t have to add much else to it and it’s ideal for making masculine cards.

I went for a monotone effect using Basic Gray ink with a Basic Gray card base. What elevates the card into something rather special is using the new Deckled Edge Rectangles Dies. It’s a race to use up the Hearts & Home Designer Series papers too which will be retiring on 30 June.

This card came together so quickly. I love the panda and koala too which I’ll share in a Sunday post. We are galloping toward Father’s Day on 19 June so I’m squeezing in as many masculine themed cards as I can! If you’ve already got more than enough ideas for Father’s day, simply switch the sentiments to a birthday, anniversary, get well or anything else that comes to mind.
