For his step-father, my husband chose this dog stamp from the "For Father" set and the "You Touch My Life" verse from the "Set Sail" set, both by Stampin' Up! I used circle dies from Lifestyle Crafts to die cut the circle shapes. I stamped the image and verse with Memento ink and colored the boots and dog with Copic markers. I sponged a couple of different inks around the dog image. Striped background paper by Robyn Pandolph for Daisy D's. The rust card stock was from my stash; the Old Olive card stock is by Stampin' Up!
For my brother-in-law, I made this lighthouse card. Stamp is from Repeat Impressions. Card stock is Stampin' Up! I colored the image with Copic markers and used Sizzix die and the Big Shot to cut out the oval and frame.
