Today’s card is a Masculine card which I made for Father’s Day. I know Mother’s Day is around the corner, but this stamp set is retiring. So you need to order it because it will make the perfect man’s card. Add the Built It Framelit and you just made card making easier. If you want more help with your creativity spark then order Paper Pumpkin.
I need to put in a note about this card. I created the jar because my father had a work bench behind the furnace. This is where all his tools were including the jars of nuts and bolts. I loved to sneak in there, but not for tools or nuts/bolts…..rather the peanuts/nuts he kept back there. I could always count them nuts being there.
