So today sees my Dad turning 80! A milestone surely, even though he doesn't seem to think so. Eight decades!
I have managed to get the day off to go an visit and I am so looking forward to sharing this great day with him.
He told me that he didn't want anything for his birthday and just for me to make him a nice card....no pressure there then!
So this is what I came up with as he does love to read. I wanted a CAS card with no fuss as he says it's just another day! Gotta love him.
I used a Sheena Douglas stamp
Stamped in Tea Dye distress ink and then coloured with aqua tints - landscape collection and aqua markers - chocolate and desert
The sentiment is using stanps from Ladybug Crafts Ink (sadly no longer trading )
Well I really must dash, still got a lot to do and a little surprise in store for Dad later ;)
Have a good day whatever you are up to. Hope the snow doesn't hinder any of your plans as we have been hoping it wouldn't get in the way of our day together.
Lots of hugs
A very very Happy Birthday Dad...Love you xxxx
