Fathers Day Card

So it seems a little sad for me to make a Father's day card, seeing that it has been over 5 years since that smiling face graced my eyes... But there is a Cricut Expression up for grabs - which is a dream to a full time single mom.

Without further ado (is that the right spelling?)...


For The Pink Stamper : Fathers Day Card

All Stamps and embellishments are from the K&Company - Actopus To Zelephant collection.

Fruit Salad?








Okay - Sooner or later I am going to need to sleep. LOL

This double slider is my first and will be my entry for:
Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge: 3 images (1 can be a sentiment), 3 kinds of embellishments, 3 patterned papers
My Time to Craft: Vivid Greeting Cards
Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge Blog: Fruit and/or veggie theme

The 3 Patterned Papers are K&Company - Berry Sweet
The 3 KINDS of embellishments are Ribbons, the eyelet and the Sparkley Flower chipboard.
The 3 images are Faceless Fruit Stamps, and Everyday Character Faces from Peachy Keen Stamps.
The sentiments are Hampton Art clear stamps.

Thanks for stopping by to peek. :)
Please feel free to follow me! :)

My Second Card

I loved scrapbooking, and have just started making cards - and I am finding that having a Challenge encourages me to do more crafting with my limited free time...

So here is Card #2... My first time colouring, so please go easy. (I swear to you there is not a store within 250 kilometers that sells Copic Markers - that I would soooo LOVE to try.)



I used a CC designs stamp, a Martha Stewart punch, and the embossing of a Cuttlebug.
Add a little Ribbon, and I have a Birthday Card for my Mom's friend.

I am thinking I will enter it in the Whoopsie Daisy - "As you like it" Challenge, and the Crafty Creations "Favorite Stamp".

Wish me luck with Card #2...

Oh, and if you want to follow me - Please do... it's lonely here! lol
