FATHER'S DAY using Crazy 4 Challenges C4C190 and TOOLS for Heart 2 Heart

I knew I wanted to use a lighthouse for my husband's Father's Day card because of the inside phrase from an old stamp set. Saturday brought new challenges, and I chose the Crazy 4 Challenge Sketch for my card.  But I also used several different of my go-to crafting tools to complete this card, so am entering it in Heart 2 Heart's Tool Time Challenge.

While I LOVE my Cricut, when I'm designing, I use my Nestabilities Dies in my Sizzix machine to see if it's going to work.  THEN I transfer the design to the Cricut so I can cut multiples for my classes.  But since this was a single card, the Sizzix was at work.  And since I was working with a sketch, I had my ruler out so I could get it as close to the original design as possible.  These tools can not be replaced.

This is a 5X7 card using retired Victory paper from CTMH.  This double-sided patterned sheet is currently available on my CTMH website in the While Supplies Last category - I've stocked up!  You can too - just click here to head over and check out the deals!

The stamp sets are also retired - Perfect Day (CTMH) for the two images and Beauty of Life and Lighthouse (both SU) for the phrases.

Here's the phrase for the inside that inspired my card!
