Father's Day

This is for my hubby for Father's Day.  He is REALLY  into cars -- of all types.  The stamps, word stamp-die, and flame stencil are all from HoneyBee Stamps. The wood frame die is from Hero Arts.  The stamping is embossed in sliver, and I colored the car with distress inks.  

1) Stamplorations Stencil Challenge - Anything Goes - Can you see the stenciled flames on the side of the car? 

2) Double Trouble Paper Crafting Challenge - This is a new challenge for me.  

Thing 1 (Trouble Maker) -- create a masculine project

 Thing 2 (Double Dare) - Link to "Use Your Stuff" Challenge

 Thing 3 (Twisted Sister) - use at least one round item -- do tires count?

3) Use Your Stuff - Masculine or Father's Day

4) NBUS - Never Before Used Schtuff - the stamp and die (from Honeybee) have never been used before

5) Cardz 4 Guyz - Father's Day

Here is a pretty picture of a recent sunset. Looks like cotton candy.  

Thanks for taking a look.  Until next time.  😷

Father's Day Journey

So after a great morning taking a class with Tim Holtz today and lunch with good friends, I realized I needed a card for the best man in the world -- my husband.  So I decide to put some of my new purchases to use :)

The stamps are from Tim Holtz (I've had these a while, but they are NBUS).  The flames are a stencil from The Crafter's Workshop.  The dot fade stencil is Tim Holtz.  And I used the new marker spritz tool on the bottom portion of the card.  I think you will be seeing more from this too!  It it sooooo easy to use!

Father's day is next Sunday.  I am glad to get this done today.  Starting tomorrow we will be dog-sitting for my son and girlfriend's dog for a week.  So between work and dog-walking, there will be no time for crafting.  Guiness is a terrific and such a cuddle-loving dog.  It should be a fun week.

I am entering this card in these other challenges:

Simon Says Stamp - Father's Day

Splendiferous Challenge-for-Boys

Moving Along with the Times - Father's Day

The Crafter's Cafe  - create a masculine card

Cards for Guyz - Father's Day

Edited to add this to Words to Live By - Oh the Places You'll Go - challenge.

A great cardmaker and blogger, Darnell is the guest designer here.  And after checking this out, I think this card fits the requirements of the challenge. Here is a (poor quality - sorry) photo of the inside sentiment.   I hope you can read it.  It is appropriate for many things.

Thanks for stopping by to look.  I hope you'll join and become a follower!
