Welcome to InKing Royalty’s March Blog Hop! This year’s Blog Hop themes are inspired by a single word – and this month our projects are centered around GREEN. We are excited to share our creations with you today – there’s a wonderful variety of styles and occasions celebrated in this hop! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
My project for today’s hop is a Father’s Day card in Tranquil Tide! This beautiful green will be retiring with the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog on June 3 – but it will likely sell out before then, so get it while you can! Here’s my card:
I love this pattern from the Classic Garage Designer Series Paper! And Tranquil Tide paired with Crumb Cake is the perfect combo for this masculine card. The wrench from the Classic Garage Metal Elements is adhered using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen and so far it’s holding strong! Mini Glue Dots work too ;).
This card is easy to make multiples of – my favorite kind! So I’ll have a nice little stash to send out to the dad dudes in my life!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the blog hop, Robin Myren at Songbird Designs by Robin. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!
Have a wonderful & blessed day!

You have created a beautiful card that would be great for any guy card as well as Father’s Day! The little touches you added fit together perfectly.
I’m going to miss Tranquil Tide. I forgot it was an In Color. Your card is a perfect one for Fathers Day. Love the balance that Crumb Cake adds with Tranquil Tide. Happy Spring to you xoxo
Brilliant use of this paper and the elements from this suite! I love this card, Julie! Such a great way to showcase brilliant colors in a fun way. I’m so glad you hopped with us today! ♥
I love that DSP and like Pam said, I will miss Tranquil Tide. It just goes with so much. Your card is too cute. My dad would have loved it.

I really love your color choices Julie. Your card is really a great way to interpret the Blog Hop’s theme.
I love Tranquil Tide and will be sorry when it retires. It pairs beautifully with Crumb Cake. Great Father’s Day card!
This is fabulously fun! I’ve been considering whether I want this set and you totally sold me on it!
Love your background for this! Awesome card!
Tranquil Tide is my all-time favorite color. I’m going to really miss it! Thanks for showcasing it on your fun card today!
