I created this card for two reasons... one was for a challenge by Provo Craft, hosted on The Pink Stamper's blog, and two is so my son has a handmade card to give his Daddy-o for Father's Day.
I used my Cricut to cut the guitar (Indie Art cartridge), and Dad (Base Camp cartridge). I love that guitar! ;)
I used my Cuttlebug to emboss the foil paper with my Diamond Plate embossing folder. I really wish CTMH didn't discontinue the foil paper. It is way thicker than heavy duty tin foil and it holds shapes very well. I've been kinda hoarding what stash I have left. ;) I just really like the masculine feel of it when paired with that embossing folder. (Does anyone know of any other foil paper line that I don't know about?)
I also did a little stamping with my You Rock stamp set.
Keeping my fingers crossed that Random.org picks my number! lol
Happy creating! :)

It's a WONDERFUL card - I was going to comment on the foil - it's just OUTSTANDING! I can see why you're hoarding it.
Hey, Vicki! I see you're hooked up on my blog - great to have you! You know, I work at Archiver's now, and the favorite metal for embossing are the QuiKutz metal sheets. They come in a package of 12 - 4"x12" sheets and are our $4.99 at our store. They work great in embossing folders, are sandable, and it is self-adhesive. Thought that might help! I agree - the CTMH sheets were nice and thick.
I am doing the great blog hop and came across your blog which is fab! lovin this card xx jo xx
