This card was inspired by a series of bookcovers. In my infinite wisdom, I closed the browser window that contained this series of books. And I am coo coo crazy with myself right now. For some reason, the site will not come up in my history, either. Grrr... I decided, as it is 2 AM, that I need to just move on and post this. (See link below! In the morning light, I found them!)
This is my husband's Father's Day card. I bought Totally Tools knowing how perfectly it fit him. I was happy to finally use the stamps.
The book covers I found had some cool elements. They were a series of three books and they had that monochrimatic theme going on... one hue darker than the major hue. I thought the reds together were interesting, so I chose them. Each book cover had words in white and yellow, as I have structured mine. Then, they had a white pencil drawn figure in the bottom right. So, I went with their basic design. They were books about management and workplace issues.
Anyway, this is also my submission for IC182. UPDATE! I found the covers!! Woo hoo!!
Since I seemed to have lost my specs in the editing, please check out my blog for the deets.

I keep seeing this card and flipping on past it, but it catches my eye every time. Just had to stop and tell you that it's a great card. Love the colors and the sentiment!
