Using the new Flourishes Father's Day stamp set, I made this card for my dear husband.
I inked up one of the lovely images with VersaMark ink, heat embossed using fine white embossing powder then finished off the card with the Happy Father's Day sentiment.

Dear Mona,
Your cards made me cry today. Having lost my father more than 20 years ago, your cards manage to evoke many tender and wonderful moments that my children and I spent with him. You all have thought me to ALWAYS remember him in a joyous rather than sad manner. For that I am grateful to all of you. What better way to keep him alive that to evoke him with sweet thoughts. He was a GREAT MAN, FATHER, SON, and HUSBAND and I will always cherish the times spent with him. Thanks for the memories!
On a lighter note I congratulate you for having the opportunity to teach at Paper Tales, that is such a beautiful place that I only know through their blog, needless to say I am green with envy but elated for you because as an admirer of your work you more than deserve this! Congratulations!
Cariños,
