Dad's Ties

Only two weeks to Father's Day so in between orders I'm busy making various dad related cards for my box at work. I've seen a number of versions of this card all over blogland - it's a cute Dad card with a corny play on words for the greeting...
 

 I've entered this into the following challenges:

Less Is More - the colour of your front door (boring brown UPVC!)
Stampin' For the Weekend - Monochrome
Totally Papercrafts - anything goes

The digi stamp is from Digistamp Boutique and the greeting is typed in ConcursoModerne BTN Lt font. The papers are ancient - from Dovecraft's Abstract Prints pack in various shades of brown.

 Another wet day here up North - off now to buy some glam wellies for next weekend's shenanigans when we go to see the Stone Roses in Finsbury Park - best be prepared for mud!

 Thanks for stopping by...
