Zooming Along, Dad Birthday Card

Hi there

Today's card is for my Dad's Birthday in a few weeks!

I went for a vintage look as he loves all things vintage right now and this cute bear stamp will be right up his street!

We have very similar taste actually which is handy :-)






I used:

LOTV
Zooming Along Stamp (discontinued)

Coloured with Promarkers
Natural Hessian Ribbon - The Ribbon Girl
Hobbycraft Star Punch
Studio G Alphabet Stamps



I cut the banner, hanging flags and punched stars from Kraft card and inked round the edges of just about everything lol to give it a lovely vintage feel!



Thanks for looking! And I really appreciate everyone that takes time to leave me comments! It's really kind thank you!
