Father's Day Challenge

Good morning all

Well the rain has arrived in my part of the world and looks to be set in for the day.... oh well better do some crafting then........... LOL

With Father's Day on Sunday there are a lot of challenges featuring this as their theme and as I've made my father's day card thought I would post it up and enter some challenges!

So here is my card



Recipe
Card blank: Craftwork Cards
BP: Freebie with a magazine
Stamp: Hero Arts
Sentiment: computer generated
Glossy Accents

I really love this Hero Arts stamp its so versatile.  I stamped the extra butterflies and layered them up and added glossy accents to give them a bit of shine.

So here are the challenges I would like to enter:-

Papertake Weekly - Dads and Lads (Tues)
cupcake craft challenges - Cupcake 146 Boy oh boy oh boy
ooh-la-la-creations challenges - Challenge 82 Father's day/Special man
stamp-n-doodle - Happy Father's day (Tues)

I also made a Father's Day card for my sister (well actually I made both and let my sis decide which one she wanted as I liked them both!!)  This is what she picked:-

Recipe
Card Blank: Craftwork Cards
Stamp: Glitz
Embossing folder: Bark Creative Expressions
Sentiment: computer generated

I inked the embossing folder before I ran it through the cuttlebug I do love the effect this gives! - just can't remember what ink it was!

Happy Crafting...

    I love them both! I love the birdcage stamp, but I like that green gingham over-stamped with *script* (love it).

    Oh, wow. Both of your cards are just lovely. I really like how you popped up the butterfly/dragonfly images, and the aging on your birdcage card is fabulous.

    Thanks for playing with us at Stamp-n-Doodle. I hope to see you again next week!
