Many of the ideas I've posted so far have been a little silly or focus on something dads like to do but for many people their father's have inspired their lives. Turning them into the people they are or are trying to become. If this is your dad be sure to check out the Define Your Life stamp set. This is where the definition for inspire is found. This stamp set is so useful for lots of occasions because there is a different word defined for each letter of the alphabet.
If you're wondering how I made the ghosty looking tree I used a technique called Faux Silk but changed it up a little bit. I'll explain just how to get this look within the directions that will be arriving in all newsletter subscribers mailboxes early next week so be sure you're signed up to receive my monthly INKspirations Newsletter.

How did you get that texture on the middle layer? That looks neat.

The texture on the Always Artichoke Cardstock was done with the Big Shot and the Distressed Texurz Plate from Texture Plates Kit #4. It's on page 195 of the catalog.
