Happy Father's Day

So with father's day coming up I thought it was about time I kicked my ass into gear and actually made my dad a card. Like all male cards, I found this one a struggle to design on my own which is why i'm grateful that there's been some really inspirational challenges' this week that have helped me on my way.
 
The image is PB and coloured with pro-markers. The papers are from the Forever Friends Classic collection and Stampin' Up. The sentiment is hand cut and the pips and ribbon from stash. I'm quite pleased with the outcome and I hope dad likes it too.

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-
Penny Black - One for the guys
Cupcake Challenges - boy, oh boy, oh boy!
Truly Scrumptious - Sketch Challenge
Simon Says - Bingo (bottom row: shape, ribbon & sentiment)
Creative Inspirations - Blue, Green and one other colour

Thanks for looking and happy crafting x
