Card for a footie mad guy

I managed to find some time to make my dad's Father's Day card and here it is using the brilliantly fun Lili of the Valley Football Bears stamp...

They are so cute, cute, cute!  I coloured them in using my Prismacolor pencils with Copics Greys for the background shading.  I also used my Simon Says Stamp grid border die and a My Favorite Things star die.

I'll be back soon with my Doodlelicious Diva DT post - ttfn!

Deckchair dreaming

I can't believe we're nearly mid-way through June and Father's Day is next week!  Luckily, Lili of the Valley have lots of brilliant stamps to suit the occasion so here is my DT card for this week using the very sweet Deckchair Dreams and papers from the Bear Necessities pad...

This card is for my lovely FIL who I can imagine having an afternoon doze!  I used my Quickutz polka dot embossing folder and My Favorite Things fishtail banner flag and label dies.

You can check out more Father's Day inspiration over at the blog here.  I'm off now but back tomorrow with my SugarPea Designs DT post - see you then!

You're a super dad

Hi everyone!  It's time for a new SugarPea Designs challenge and the theme is "masculine".  I thought I'd take the opportunity to make a card for Father's Day which will be here before you know it!  Here it is...

He is super, don't you think?  This is the My Hero set and I simply matched him up with Echo Park papers and used My Favorite Things notched border die.  Not a lot to it but I don't think this fella needs much else!

Check out the rest of the gorgeous DT inspiration over at the blog here.  I hope you can join in - for these challenges you can use any stamp you like but if you do use a SPD stamp you will win more!

A new SugarPea Designs challenge!

The new challenge SugarPea Designs starts today and the theme is easy again - anything goes!  Here is my DT make using two of this month's release sets - the house from the Gnome Sweet Gnome set and Mr Bunny from the One Big Hoppy Family set...

I love how these two sets work together - that Wendy is a clever girl, it means I get so much more from two sets!  I used a Stampin' Up embossing folder (discontinued, I think) and Lili of the Valley papers from the Petal Fresh collection.  I coloured the images with Prismacolor pencils for a softer, rustic look.

I hope you can join us this month - we would love to see what you're doing with these super sweet SugarPea Design stamps.  Just link up your creation to the blog here and while you're there, check out the gorgeous DT makes!

Is it hot enough yet for a BBQ?!

Well, it's certainly warmer this weekend but it is overcast and now it's drizzling - where is the sunshine the weatherman promised me?!!  I hope the weather is better wherever you are!  Anyhoo, I'm here today with a card I made with my Stamping Bella stamp by Mo Manning called Big Man Grilling...

We were hoping to have a BBQ today but I think we'll scrap that idea and hopefully it will be possible for our Ban Holiday Monday (yay, long weekend!).  I matched him up with Pink Paislee Happy Now papers and used a variety of stickers from my stash (yep, still trying to use these up!).

Okay, I gotta go and do something useful now.  Not sure what that is yet - it was going to be gardening but now it's probably going to be ironing.  Bleh!

Thanks for visiting and I'll see you later on my blogrounds!

(Please scroll down for my All That Scraps April release post!)

There's some new goodies in the Lil' Inker Designs store and you are going to love these!  There are three new dies and one new matching stamp set.  And of course what's a blog hop without prizes?  Make sure you comment as you hop long - the more you comment, the better your chance of winning!  We'll be giving away prizes for two $10 store credits!  You'll definitely want to hop!

Okay, so here is my project using the Dad die and new Mom and Dad Sentiment Set...

I'm going to give this to my Father-In-Law for Father's Day - I think he'll love it!  I matched it up with papers by Designs by Dani called Dapper Dan.  As well as the sentiments, I also used the double line stamp from the sentiment set to add a little more interest.  I like how it came out!

So back to the hop!  You should have come here from sweet Karen and you now need to hop off to the lovely Sarah.  You'll then want to pop off to the store here to see all of the new goodies!

See you tomorrow with day 2 of All That Scraps and Lil' Inker Designs DT new release posts!

Mashi's Muffins review time over at All That Scraps!

It's time to review the All That Scraps Mashi's Muffins May release and today I have a Father's Day easel card using Mashi's Muffins Gnome...

 

 

Ain't he sweet?!  My dad is a keen fisherman so this will suit him perfectly!  The sentiments are from the AmyR All About Dad and I created a simple background using the C.C. Designs Cutter Flower Border Die and C.C. Designs Cutter Grass Border Die.
