For today's F4A275 - Honor Father. I can only dream of having my Grandfather back again. He raised me and he was my Universe. This card is to honor his Legacy.
This card fits Last weeks F4A274-Stars, and it fits yesterday's Ways To Use It Challenge #WT533, "Favorite Tools". My faves are definitely Embossing folders and Craft Dies. Just cant seem to make a single project without them!
Also for this month's Dirty Dozen Central Theme: Over My Head #CT0515 - "Keep looking up - that's the secret of life."
The craft dies and canvas stickers do most of the work here. Ive added bling and sponged the stickers to bring the colors together and give depth!

America, you might think the stickers and dies do all the work, but you have the most amazing skill with arranging and embellishing a design not to mention your skill with colour as well. What a beautiful memory to honour the dear man who raised you and whose memory you love and cherish.
