Today's challenge over at "365 Cards" was to create a card using something "plaid" on it. Since Father's day will be here before we know it I thought I would make this card for my Step-Father Larry whom I call POPS. I love making cards for people using a photograph of them so I dug through my old photos and found this one from 1968 and even the shirt has some plaid in it, although you can't tell too easily from the photo. On the inside of the card I put; "I never got to choose you, You just became my 'dad', So I'm grateful to my mother, for the great taste that she had."
All paper is BasicGrey ARCHAIC it is the only one I could find with a plaid in it. The buttons are also BasicGrey and the twine is from SU. I distressed all the papers and photo with Ranger Distressed Vintage Photo.
Hope you Enjoy!
Great card - love your papers and the photo - I am sure Pops will love it.
