Happy Father's Day

We made this card in class last Thursday night. I showed the girls how to stamp using an embossing folder. I love the fact that you can use a product in different ways to get different effects. To get this result just ink up the raised side of your embossing folder and push it onto your cardstock, tada! that's all there is to it :)
