Good morning!

I made this card for this weeks sketch challenge over at the Critter Sketch Challenge blog.  I used my PTI stamp set called All About You Additions.  The flower image worked perfectly for this weeks sketch challenge.   The flowers are nice and big which is perfect for coloring in with Copics.  I just colored them to match my papers.  I hope you like it and thanks for stopping by!  To play in this weeks challenge head on over to the Critter Sketch Challenge blog for all the deets and more inspiration from our design team!

So Sweet.../JUGS #38

Good Morning!


 
 YEAH!!!  Schools out!!!...and it's time for another challenge over at Just Us Girls.  This week Alicia is our host for the color challenge and she has come up with the delicious color combo of chocolate, vanilla and light pink!  When she mentioned ice cream colors  I knew right away what image I wanted to use!  This is Kiki La Rue, she's a digi image from All That Scraps.  My favorite kind of ice cream is chocolate.  Sooo! she had to have chocolate whether it's her favorite or not!  LOL!!!  I colored her in with my Copics added a little glossy accents to her buttons on her dress and shoes with a little glitter on her head band.  I used Spellbinders Nestabilities (Labels ten)  to place my sentiment on.  I just love the Waltzingmouse stamp sets that coordinate with the Nestabilities.  They just dress them up so nicely.

I hope you come and play with us this week!   Remember to post a direct link to your project on the JUGS blog.  If uploading to a public Gallery use the label JUGS38. 

The dead line to be considered "Chic of the Week " is Thursday June 24th 9pm. I can't wait to see what you all create using our color combo! Thanks for stopping by and have a fun weekend!

One For the Boys

Hello! 
This card is for my dear ole Father in-law.  I used PTI's Father Knows Best stamp set along with the argyle paper from Graphic 45's A Proper Gentleman collection to make my card.  This is such an awesome collection for making "guy" cards!  I entered this in  Totally Gorjuss's challenge 34 (for the boys).
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Father's Day!

Just Flying by...

Hello,
I made this simple Father's Day card with a cute little "mini"  Papertrey stamp set that I just had to have!  The little plane is perfect for a male oriented card because our guys don't want anything frilly but we want it to still be "cute"!  Am I right?!  LOL!!!   I've entered it into the Cupcake Craft Challenge which is to make a card for the boys.  Have a good one and thanks for taking the time to stop by!

Vintage Fathers Day

Hello!
Here I am with my favorite Father's Day card!  This is the one I'm giving to my Dad.  Not because it's an antique car or anything!  My Dad is seventy-one but let me tell ya'  he can out hike me on any given day.  Not to mention he just finished building a new home by himself last year.  Yeah, he had a little family help to put the shell up and that's it by gosh!  Being the proud man he is...if he mentioned he had something to do (like split a cord of wood) and before you'd get there in the morning he'd have it all done!!!  LOL!  Gotta love him!

Supplies; Graphic 45-A Proper Gentleman, PTI-card stock(white,jewel,black), Sentiment- Father Knows Best  

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

A Proper Gentleman...

Hello!
I was making Father's Day cards today and was looking for a sketch for a little inspiration and found this great sketch over at  Unscripted Sketches today and decided to play along with them.  I just love Graphic 45 paper and have the Proper Gentleman pack which is just perfect for Father's Day.  I have made enough that I'm gonna post one each day this week!  I still haven't decided which one I'll give to my Dad yet!  LOL!   I will show you my favorite one tomorrow.  My sentiment is from PTI's Father Knows Best stamp set.  Have a good one and thanks for stopping by! ;0)
