Grid Father’s Day Card

Happy Monday morning to everyone! Our schools are out for the summer now so I am sure everyone is enjoying the more relaxed morning. Get a cup of coffee and do some blurfing to see all the gorgeous goodies created for you.

Since you decided to check out my blog, I have a great Father’s Day card for you. This card was made using the sketch from the Creative Belli Blog. They gave you a sketch that you were supposed to use it to make a Father’s Day Card. I also combined it with the All That Scraps Blog challenge which was to use the grid technique. I hadn’t done this technique for a while and I thought it would be a good one to use on this card.

I had a stamp that I had not used yet. I bought it to do the bead stained glass technique and had not used it yet. I used a marker to color just the outline of the sailboat for this card. After I stamped it I used the marker to trace over the stamped lines so I would have a bold image. For the sun I took a piece of paper and working in a circular motion I put down Yoyo Yellow first. I then used a little More Mustard around the edges and ended with Pumpkin Pie. Here is the sketch and my creation.
