Tribute to Dad & Father-n-Law

                               Here is my Mojo Monday Card Challenge.



When I saw this Recollections Paper Stacks. I was going to use it as a scrapbook layout tribute to Dad (husband). But when I saw the mojo monday card challenge, I thought it would also be a great card to sent to my Father-n-law for always putting up with me for shopping for their outfits colors and getting photos taking. Also standing still and smiling for an hour.  


My Husband & 3 Boys.
They are my inspiration for this card.

     Sentiment: Dad The greatest treasures are invisible to the eye & found with the heart.



My Father-n-law, Husband, and 3 Handsome boys.
The sentiment is very fitting for them.

To share this card is a really special moment with all of you. Because I never have met my real dad. That is why, I had to share our photo for Father Day & card with all of you.  It was alot of work but it is always worth for me.  
                                     
    Stamp is called Wonderful Friends.
The paper is from Recollection Stacks  called Love Letters.
The main paper is Stampin Up Early Espresso and Cherry Cobbler is use for the hearts.
Also used Stampin Up 3 Hearts Punch & Arrow Punch is pointing toward love.
Ribbon is by Offray.
Love to hear what you think?

Wow, its Monday. Thank you for all the wonderful comments that everyone left last week on Mojo Monday Card Challenge. I wanted to share a birthday card that, I made for a special person. Also added a  iTune gift card next to the headphone. I used foam tape to give it a little bit of a lift so you can slide the gift card in and out. I also used Stampin Up punches which was 1" and 1 1/4 "  at the edge of    the iTune card  so you can easily take it out.  The background paper, I used  behind the headphone is the circle nestabilities  which was 4" and 3 1/4". And the papers, I used was printed from the Cricut Imagine JT Cartridge. I print every paper expect the black and white bazzil card stock. Distress the around the edge of the paper to give it a distress look. Love to hear from all of you. Have a great week.
