Another Father's Day Card

Another Father's Day card for challenges this week at ColourQ and PaperPlay.   I stole found this incredible deal on the Classic Convertible set by Stampin Up at a rummage sale.  On eBay it is selling for $60.00, and I paid $8.00.  And then of course because I had to use it right away, I drew a blank.  So I cased this card, substituting the correct colors for the challenge.

The Challenge at PaperPlay ~

Week 24 - For a Man (with twine) 

Our challenge this week is called "For a Man - with twine" - it's almost Father's Day here in Ireland (and in the U.K., I think), so you could do something for a Dad or Grandad - but anything for a guy will do - but it must have twine on it somewhere. 

Supplies ~

Stamp: SU Classic Convertibles

Paper: PTI & SU (I substituted  Marina Mist for the Brocade Blue)

Ink: SU
Punch: SU
Additional Supplies:  Button & Baker's Twine ~ PTI
