Simple little trio

 This week has been crazy cold for Central PA.  I never remember temperatures like this... but we will survive!  I have a heater that is in the craft cave but sometimes that doesn't help the draft that just crawls across the shoulders...so I have been bundled up with my Kindle, reading... another enjoyed past time.

This year as accomplishments, I wanted to get some cards together that I could put into gift giving sets. No matter what time of year! So here is the start:


  
Using the Delightful Dozen "Happy Fathers Day" sentiment, this came together quickly. 

 
Party this Way, and some more retired papers made a great birthday card. 


 
A very fun designer paper, completed the set of three with a Thank you!


All three cards use the Paper Players Challenge Sketch, which is going to be kept for later use...when the mojo needs some prompting.

Rock it Dad - Recycle

I used multiple recycled items.
I needed a ROCK STAR card and I am happy with the end result!



I made my own paper - spritzed water and ink drops on the white paper, with Cool Carribean (yeah I still have the in my stash) and Wild Wasabi. I stamped the Guitar in Wild Wasabi, the Crown in Cherry Chobbler, the stars in Cool Carribean as well.  Using the brads in three sizes in the silver gave it more of masculine card. As did the recycled cardboard behind the front panel.



I love the way it all comes together. Especially since its been a while in my craft room !!!

I promise to be back again.

Wonderful Wallet for Dad


Every year I think I make a wallett for Fathers Day! People love them!



They can put gift cards in them, pictures of the kids, grand kids, event tickets, whatever they want. It works out real well, and I always have fun making them!



I used the Well worn DSP for some color to the usual, leather look, and I like the splash of color it brings.

Semi Argyle


It reminds me of fathers... and for whatever reason my father wasn't a fan of it.. maybe it was my mother since I recall she spoiled him with picking out his clothing, since he wore uniform to work. Whatever it was, its masculine but hilarious to think imagine my dad wearing it.



I put this together pretty fast. However what I used and haven't in a long long long time (or maybe EVER) was my Stamp-a- mig. I actually had to get the directions out to see how to use it!


 

I used the Send me soaring stamp set, it worked out just right!!!

King of the Road

So its really difficult for me to sit my but down and create right now. I may have spring fever... or vacation on the brain.. who knows... but I have been saving this color combo for something else but then put this card together for the other half's dad... since its a cell phone photo its alittle bright.


I know the motorcycle is not current, but I love it so much and its so fitting for his Harley loving pop!





Have a great day!

Thank you for stopping by!

Stay cool - its another hot one out there here in PA!
