You're the Best!

Happy Monday!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend!

We did all we could to stay out of the heat, we've had 100+ degree temps & extreme heat warnings for days... blah!

Anyway, just thought I'd pop in to share the card that I made for my dad for Father's Day!



I love these succulents stamps from Simon Says Stamps! I've *just* expanded my real succulents collection (and want more!) in my garden, they are SO easy!



That's all for today, thanks for stopping by!

You're Awesome... We Love You!

Happy Father's Day!

I'm popping in quick to share a card for my husband, 'from' my kids for Father's Day today!

I colored these sweet critters from Mama Elephant's Three Amigos! & the "you're the best" sentiment is from the Origami set.



I mirror-stamped the fox so they would be facing each other, and added a bow for a little girl ;)

Thanks for stopping by, hope you all enjoy your Sundays celebrating Dad!

Happy Father's Day!

Popping in to say Happy Father's Day!! (not really sure how many male readers I have out there... but hoping your enjoying the day spoiling those special men in our lives :))

I made this quick card for my hubs "from" our son, I absolutely fell in love with this sweet little penguin image from 2 Cute Ink- perfect for a Father's Day card!



Hope you have a fabulous weekend... until tomorrow :)

FORE!!

Father's Day is just around the corner so I'm attempting to be prepared and have them done early this year!

When I saw the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays was masculine cards- it was just the nudge I needed!  Kraft is usually my "go-to" for guy cards, but NO KRAFT is allowed AND we had to add ribbon! This got me thinking and here is what I came up with using the golf cart from Paper Smooches My Guy...



I tried die-cutting ribbon and IT WORKED- Sweet! :) I also diecut the triangle to make it look like the golf flagsticks that mark where the hole is.

I'm also entering this in Paper Smooches' Anything Goes challenge this week!

Until tomorrow... happy stamping!

You're the Best!

Happy Father's Day!!

I threw together this quick card to give my dad today!


and just had to share a "photo shoot" I did with my son for his "dada" :) LOVE this boy to pieces!!


Enjoy your Sunday!

All-Star Dad

(What is this craziness?? SECOND post of the day.. please scroll down to see my first!)

My husband loves sports- especially football and we've also been getting back into watching baseball too! How about those Diamondbacks!? Woohoo :)

So for Father's Day I knew I a sports themed card would be perfect!  Once again, still playing with those Paper Smooches stamps! & what do y'know another CAS card too!

For this card I'm joining the fun at The Twinery- It's an Anything Goes challenge & Die-cut Divas Guys & Boys challenge too!

You're Tee-riffic!

I finally got my hands on some adorable Paper Smooches stamps & had to use them!  Good thing I chose this set PERFECT for Father's day! :)

I made this card for my golfing-fanatic father-in-law...


I'm playing along with the Paper Smooches Designer Drafts challenge AND the Simon Says Father's Day/Masculine Challenge!

Happy Father's Day

(a day late!)

Hope you all enjoyed the weekends and had a wonderful Father's Day with the men in your families!

I went to my LSS looking for some ink refills (which they were out of) and walked out with this set from Hero Arts!


Something a little different for me since I ♥ coloring so much! Anyway, I used the stamp on the right to make my dad his Father's Day card:

Supplies:
- Vine Scrolls, Chinese Thank You, butterfly-Good Fortune (Hero Arts)
- Ink: Versamark Dazzle Frost, Broken China; Peeled Paint & Dusty Concord Distress Ink
- Other: ribbon, buttons

I stamped the Vine Scrolls & butterflies  twice w/Peeled Paint & Dusty Concord distress inks with re-inking in between stamping, embossed with clear embossing powder.  Then applied Broken China distress ink around the edges using a sponge applicator.  

Thanks for all you do DAD!

{& Thanks to you for stopping by today! I'll be back again tomorrow w/the next Tiddly Inks Tuesday Challenge!}

Happy Father's Day!

Father's Day

After the Stampin' Up class- I made my own version of the wallet card, and another card to decide between to give my dad..


and this one:

I ended up picking the wallet one- and each one of my sisters and I signed a 'credit card' that's inserted in each of the pockets. Jason & I went to a house-warming party for some good friends of ours on Saturday night, and I made this card for them:

Thanks for looking!
