Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day!  Especially to those single Moms out there!  In many cases you are playing both roles, I've been there and it's not easy!  I have to admit I don't miss it!    :)   
I met my husband 10 years ago and he was so worth waiting for!  He is the most wonderful, hard working and loving husband and Dad ever! 
  Our challenge this week at 613 Avenue Create is Anything Goes but the optional twist is to incorporate Subway Art into your design.  I had fun with this one!  And we have 3 great sponsors this week too!

  Inky Impressions

 

 I've used an image from Meljen's Designs called Pappa Bear.  There's actually another bear in the image but I cut it out.

 

 I found the subway art on Pinterest, here's a link to my Subway Art Board. Papers, ink and dies are from MFT, heart die from Lawn Fawn, DAD stamp by Verve, star embossing folder by Paper Studio and colored with chalks and Copics.

Thanks for stopping by!

World's Greatest Dad!

I'm back again with the Father's Day card I made for my awesome husband and best friend  :)  I used an image by Pollycraft Digi's called Barclay's Tie. They have the cutest images!  I cut the image out and attached an Action Wobble.  The kid in me just loves those things!  

 

Ok this is my first video so bare with me!  

Have a wonderful day!
Hugs,

Yankees magnet and acrylic block tip!

I made a magnet for my husbands locker at work.  Mind you he works in Massachusetts...you know...Red Sox Nation!  Needless to say he's outnumbered there but he loves to torture them!  LOL!!  This is an old stamp set from Autumn Leaves and the ROCKS are letters from another license plate set and don't remember who made it!  I'm bad but it's old too!

Here is the back, I added some chipboard for support.  Stamp by Verve.

Ok so here's my tip.  I was looking for my really large acrylic block and can't find it...I rarely use it.  I was going bonkers looking when it finally hit me...I could use the embossing plate from my Cuttlebug!!  Duh!  Well it worked great!  And definitely large enough.  So don't waste $ on a large block just find something else to use  :)

I am entering this in Tammy's Scrapin Corners challenge this week which is #14 For the Boys.  And linking to The Sunday Showcase Party #106 and Made By You Monday.
