Your love is forever strong,
Your cuddles forever tight.
Everyday since I was born,
Your love is always in sight.
I will always be your Baby Girl,
And you will always be my Dad.
I know I will always be the luckiest,
To have the best Dad any girl could have.
Your cuddles forever tight.
Everyday since I was born,
Your love is always in sight.
I will always be your Baby Girl,
And you will always be my Dad.
I know I will always be the luckiest,
To have the best Dad any girl could have.

Giving a shout out to my dear father today...thanking him for all he's done for me these past months (well, and my mom too!) Today the design team at The Craft's Meow is having a Masculine Themed Blog Hop for your inspirational pleasure. If you are following the hop, you should have arrived from Jinny's blog. You can find the complete hop list at The Craft's Meow Store Blog. Also, you can find a sampling of all the masculine sets available from The Craft's Meow here.
I chose to work with Geometric Foundations, a set a designed a few months back but never got to showcase here on my own blog. There are a lot of fun and trendy patterns in this set that are perfect for the guys, and the sentiments are bold, clean and simple.
I was inspired by Lisa's card from The Case Study Challenge, so I stamped the solid chevron stamp from the set with various pigment ink pads, and then used the outline chevron stamp over the solid. I finished the card with a sentiment, also from Geometric Foundations, ink distressed the edges and mounted the panel to a kraft card base.
One lucky commenter will get a stamp set of their choice. We encourage you to leave a comment along all the stops, the hop ends at 11:59 EST, Sunday June 9th.
The next stop is Lin!
love the look!
