Prettie Wednesday- Red, Black, and White

So, I am TOTALLY late posting my Prettie Wednesday card, but I am in a funk this week and am having a hard time getting out of it. I am working this week at the Post Office in the town I used to live in when I was married...between getting less sleep and the emotional attachment, I am kind of a mess...that and I miss my boy so much!! Unfortunately for my Mom, who is taking care of him this week, he is not feeling well...poor baby!! Anyway, back to my card!! Two weeks ago, Frances challenged us to make a card using Red, Black and White. I decided, since I am woefully behind, that I would make a Father's Day card for my Dad. Since I know he won't see it before Sunday, it is definitely safe to post. I am pretty certain he isn't really a golfer, but I still think he will like it!! I started by stamping my Luke image from the Paper Pretties set, Right On Par, on an MFT Perfect Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I then colored it in with my Copics and paper pieced the shirt with some Real Red DSP. I used more of the DSP on the belly band and added some Real Red striped ribbon and Black Gingham ribbon. The brads are from Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts.
Well, that is it for me now, thanks for stopping by and I am SO sorry I was late!!
