SSS Mom and Dad Icons | Father's Day Cards | Copics

Happy weekend!! :)

I realized I hadn't made any Father's Day cards yet and with the day fast approaching I needed to get on that - so here's 2!

I pulled out Simon Says Stamp's Mom and Dad Icons stamp set and coordinating wafer dies and did a little bit of Copic colouring:

I stamped all the images I wanted to use onto Neenah Solar White 80lb card stock with SSS Intense Black ink then coloured them in with the Copics. After colouring I used the coordinating wafer dies to cut them all out.

I used Simon Says Stamp's Stitched Rectangle dies to cut all the layers, and stamped the coordinating icon stamp onto the color card stock with the same color of SSS ink.

After I had finished adhering everything I coated the icons with my Clear Pico embellisher - it isn't as thick as Glossy Accents so it won't be as raised which was the look I was after - I wanted the gloss and shine but in a thin layer. That plus I find the Pico dries a lot faster (which is perfect for someone like me - I always end up touching anything I apply GA to and wrecking it.....).

I finished off the insides of the cards with more sentiments and more die cut and coloured icons from the Mom and Dad Icons set and that was it!
