Father's Day Card

I realized one of my pearls fell off after I uploaded the pics!  Oh well, I'm not perfect, are you?  I created this for my dear 85 yo Dad for Father's Day and used the guidelines found on www.heart2heartchallenges.blogspot.com.  The instructions were to create a Father's Day card and make your own background paper.  I used the "You and Me" and "Lucky" stamp Sets from Close To My Heart to create the "wallpaper" background.  I also used "Universal Backgrounds" stamp set from CTMH for the "wood floor".  The bit of "rug" shown in the corner is from You & Mr stamps as well.  The chair was stamped onto patterned paper and cut out.  I think he'll like it.  Here's a photo from his youth-he had the Elvis stance down before there was an Elvis!
Supplies used are ALL Close To My Heart:
B & T paper-Fanfare
Mocha Gems
Kraft Card stock
Moonstruck and Chocolate inks
Vanilla Cream card stock
You & Me stamps
Universal Background Stamps
Lucky Stamp Set
Chairs to You stamps
Scalloped Punch
Foam Adhesive

    Very beautiful...love the colors and the simplicity of the card. I would of never known that one of the pearls fell off if you did not mention it. That is an easy fix though. Love it. TFS
