Lining things up.....

I know...the watercolouring could use some help, and I could have used more adhesive.

Watercolouring was the first technique I learned in a card class, and I love the technique. (I'm still trying to perfect it though.) So of course, this was one of the first stamp sets I ordered and of course....this also ended up being one of the first cards I made.

The image is from "Seaside Sketches", from Stampin' Up!'s 2006-2007 Catalogue. I only watercoloured the background and the jeans to add focus on the father-son duo.

The circle window was created using the 1-3/8" and 1-1/4" circle punches from Stampin' Up!

The circle looks in at the greeting (also from "Seaside Sketches" set) which reads "The best things in life are not free, but priceless." The text inside doesn't exactly line up perfectly, and if I were to make this card again, I'd definitely try to line it up better. But that is a minor minor detail.

I think this would be a great Father's Day card!
