This week’s ColorLab Challenge colors are courtesy of…..me! The design team chose colors for the whole month and this is what I came up with. I knew this palette would be awesome for Father’s Day cards and now is the time to get working on them!! Of course the Last Chance lists came out yesterday (see yesterday’s post for more information) and that inspired me to pull out the Father’s Day stamp from All Holidays, one of the retiring sets.
This is one of those word stamps that provides focal point and sentiment all in one. Then, I just let some accessories do the rest of the work. The Early Espresso Baker’s Twine was cinched by tying on a Regals button (technically Cajun Craze but with the Not Quite Navy behind it, it goes perfectly). The Not Quite Navy panel was embossed using my Big Shot and the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. I used the layout from the Fall-to Layout 142.
I can’t wait for you to see what the rest of the team has created with these colors and I look forward to seeing your creations too! Thanks for stopping in today. See you again soon!

Very masculine looking card – ‘no frou frou’ as my DH would say. For me, I like the button ande need to stop hoarding my button stash.
Great colors, love that baker’s twine! Maybe I need it now.
