Oh my goodness I love this Fathers Day card sooo much.
Love the Black card stock and Crumb Cake card stock together.
I used the Versa Mark ink pad #102283 and the Black embossing powder #109133 to make the top greeting and the ties pop even more .
I used the Versa mark ink pad with Clear embossing powder # 109130 for the bottom greeting
The images are from the stamp set called
Best Dad Ever

I will get a video filmed on this card soon ~ since the photo doesn't show what the whole card looks like when totally closed . But the Crumb Cake card stock is cut smaller than the Black and fits inside ..
Sorry I can't decribe it better .
I also used the Crumb Cake 1/2 " Seam Binding ribbon # 122332.
Used the Photo corners punch #119878 and then added 2 black brads from the Neutrals brad pack # 119736
Here is a card I made with My Digital Studio #118108
Actually I made a bunch of these Birthday cards to have on hand . The Happy Birthday on the front & and also the Birthday Wishes on the inside are using the Sale-a-Bration Digital Content CD which you can pick for FREE from the Sale-a-Bration mini catalog HERE .
I used my Favorite color Crumb Cake and also Chocolate chip on my MDS card
Here is a photo of the inside It's the same design I made for the front and carried lover to the inside . I must admit this is the very 1st card I made with MDS and I really love it .
Guess what even though I added the inside design the costs for printing was the same if I would have left it blank on the inside which is $1.99 and get this when you have SU! print them you also get envelopes for your cards .. AWESOME!!
I will be making alot more cards with MDS and Hopefully one day I will get good enough and make a video for you on how to use your MDS for making cards .. Its very addiciting and I LOVE it !

P.S Last Night I had to take my honey bunch to ER . He was fixing the pipe downstairs and it fell right on top of his head ..
Needless to say he has a HUGE 3 1/2" cut and had to get 14 staples in his head OUCHIE!!
PLUS they had to shave a spot of his hair off to get to the cut . I would show you the photo/s But they are kinda GROSS maybe one day after we get the staples out in 2 weeks until then he can't wash his hair for 1 week so Jessie and I must come up with some very creative hairdos for him LOL
