Happy 85th birthday

Today is my dad's birthday and the first birthday without my mom so a pretty hard day for him. This is the card I sent him.

Started with a piece of Accent Opaque Digital International Paper 80 lb. cover smooth white cardstock then using the wintry forest layered stencil set by Pinkfresh studio did my scene. Only used stencil 2-5 with ergonomic blending brush and Altenew crisp die ink gentleman’s gray collection silver lake, gray denim, cloudy night and charcoal suit then die cut it with double stitched rectangle die by Kat Scrappiness then added Tim Holtz distress oxide ink broken china then mounted to a layer of Recollections 110 lb. black cardstock die cut with Cindy Echtinaw Designs Card Creator Perfect Layers A then mounted to an A2 card base of Accent Opaque Digital International Paper 120 lb. Cover Smooth white cardstock then added Nuvo Crystal Drops gloss oyster gray and finally added message from global greetings by Papertrey Ink
