Fishing is a sport

More later!!!
Monday, June 10 - our internet is not so great, and I ran out of time to finish this one on Sat.  I  am at our club house and forgot to bring the details.  I believe the stamp company is Holly Hill.  I used some fishing DP, and a sticker to add to the fishing theme.  I colored with Prismas.  I will not use a Father's Day card, but I thought the For You sentiment could be appropriate. 
There are lots of challenges for Father's Day / Masculine themes:

Prom Dress?

I see a dress like this (SU - Blooming with Happiness) and I think of Prom - but I doubt it would show up at any of today's festivities LOL!!!   I did all the flowers with shiny gel pens.  The DP is Paper Studio (IRL it IS pink), and the bg cs is Recollections metallic.

Maude in pink



Maude is looking a bit grumpy - maybe there is too much pink for her!  I colored her with prismas and a touch of gel pen.  The dies are Nesties and a CB border, with some punched butterflies, and a bit of lace trim.  Both papers are from Paper Studio. 
My cyber friend Kathy Curry designed this great sketch.

Old & New Thank You


HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I will need a few thank you cards, so this is a good way to start the new year.  I just received my order of Basic Grey Hopscotch items, including the DP and embellishments (buttons and paper ribbon.)  The embossing folder (Lifestyle crafts) is fairly new as well.  The brown cs I have had quite a while.  The stamp (SU Designer greetings) is new to me, but purchased at a yard sale, so is really old!

High Hopes for a child

I do not do well with cards for little ones.  Our youngest grandchildren are teens, so I am out of practice!
This uses my oldest High Hopes, colored with chalk pencils.  The bg is dry embossed with the Happy Birthday (CB) folder.  The ribbon and DP I have had for several years.  The rhinestones are Studio 18.

CAD Torn and glittery with swirls


DH is ready to walk out the door - our big activity for today is to go for pizza.
I used one of my favorite things - a Cuttlebug folder (swirls).  I have had these for a while, and they are not much neglected.  This ribbon is also from my older stash.  The Penny Black image is much newer for me.  The DP was a gift from a friend at Wish RAK, on SCS.
Tearing is one of the weekly challenges for the card a day group on SCS.

Happy Anniversary Dale & Marilyn


More friends will have an anniversary this week.  This image is perfect for our age group LOL!!!
The dp is from a large pack of Costco double sided cs.  The image from Mo's Digital Pencil is colored with Prismas, and the sentiment is Kolette Hall ($1 stamp).  The swirls are part of a die cut.  Velvety blue ribbon is by Bobbin.  I added some sparkle to the butterfly, the swirls and the sentiment.
I used the layout, including the butterfly and the swirls, as well as the look of the papers, as a case:  http://www.cinspirations.blogspot.com/

Relax

  1. I have completed another of my masculine cards, as well as another 100 cards in 100 days - using items on hand - no  new purchases!  The stamp is by Embossing Arts Co., colored with Prismas.  I used two CB folders - Happy Birthday, and Bubbles.  The DP has been in my stash a LONG time!  (I cannot figure out what I did to change my format LOL!)

Golden Wedding


I often need special anniversary cards for customers, so this will be good to have in my inventory.  I used a piece of a large gift bag for the gold.  The lacy circle is the Lavalier Circle by Memory Box.  I used two kinds of ribbon and a gold cord.  The embossed gold flowers are by Petaloo.  I added half pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.  The 50 is the Olivia die cut by Cuttlebug.

Baby Girl Congrats


Yesterday I completed a card for a boy, and I decided to add a companion baby girl card to my inventory. I used the same Debbie Mumm papers, but in pink.  I cut apart the letters to add to the banner (for the sketch).  I usually forget to add glitter, but I did Stickle the letters and the button brads.  Ribbon and tiny pink crystals complete the card.
This is a feminine little girl card for:  http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.com/
