Good afternoon fellow bloggers. I hope you have all been enjoying your weekend. The weather has been gorgeous and I've spent most of the weekend buying bedding plants, planting them and tidying up the garden - it has been very satisfying.
Yesterday evening I started this card for the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge where the theme is "In the Jungle".
I needed to make a Fathers' Day card from my son for his Daddy and thought this would fit the bill.

I didn't have any background paper suitable for a jungle theme so I made my own using flourish stamps and three different green inks.
I'm quite pleased with this card and I hope "Daddy" likes it too.
Here's what I used:
Stamps: Sugar Nellie "Rory", Inkadoo flourishes, Elzybells "Family messages"
Copic Ciaos
"Ink it Up" mini ink pads, Memento Rich Cocoa
Die Cuts with a View cardstock
Woodware leaf punch
Nestabilties: Lables and Large long scalloped rectangles.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and looking at this card.
