Even though it's more than a week away, I have started working frantically on cards for Father's Day. This is definitely one of my favorites. I created the card with Stampin' Up! cardstock, my Silhouette Cameo, and a Fishing Vest download from Snapdragon Snippets. I really like their downloads because they provide such great instructions on their website.
I decided to do faux stitching on the vest and found that the Project Life journaling pens were perfect for the job. Most of the edges of the vest and pockets were sponged with Soft Suede ink to make them stand out.
Do you hoard scraps of paper? Me, too!
Those scraps come in very handy in a project like this one.
This is a screenshot of the Silhouette Designer Edition software. You can see that I have grouped the individual elements from the card in different areas on the mat. With the grid lines on, I can tell exactly where to place my paper scraps.
This is a picture of my Cameo preparing to cut the multiple small pieces from the card. I'm able to use up a lot of scraps this way and minimize my cutting time.
The colors used on this card are: Crumb Cake, Basic Black, Mossy Meadow, Real Red, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Lost Lagoon, Night of Navy, and Whisper White.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Ok…this makes me want to dust off my cameo and create! I love this vest! Great choice of colors!
Oh my this is super duper adorable! It looks like it would have taken forever, gotta love those e-cutters!
OMG, this is just adorable. I have a circuit and love laying out my scraps to cut small pieces and I do, just like you. This is so cute and what a great masculine card for sure!
This card is fabulous, I love every piece! I definitely need to get input from you on my Cameo, I’ve had it for other a year but haven’t actually turned it on yet, now I want to. Perfect!!!
