I stamped a bunch of chevron strips in tuscan olive, navy and slate ink from Fresh. I thought the colour scheme was suitably masculine. :P
Then, I stamped the double line with Faux Ribbon for a faux stitched line and adhered the two sides with thin strips of Sookwang tape and got to work on the Enchanted Evening inner panel.
I stamped the grid pattern from Background Basics: Geometrics with tuxedo black ink. I used an old dryer cloth to ensure that the surface was ready to heat emboss. I stamped the Father's Day sentiment from one of the Fillable Frames in Versamark ink and then heat embossed with Zing Brown Sugar embossing powder. This is a great match to the fine linen card stock.
I used the linen impression plate to impress the pattern into the card panel and pocket. Hope Dad likes it!
