Father's Day Fishing Card

I'm determined to not post my Father's Day cards late (like I did with my Mother's Day cards!) LOL, lets see how I do!  Here's one:


I used the Teddy Bear Parade cartridge to make the cute fishing bear.  Added some chalking and doodle dots to him.  The paper is The Green Stack by DCWV. Just decorated it simply with linen thread and Stampin Up candy dots.

Simple Stampin Up Father's Day Cards

I've been having a hard time sleeping lately.  I go to sleep super, super late and then I wake up super, super late.  It messes everything up!  I really need to keep busy during the summer so this doesn't happen, because my body goes a little haywire when I'm not at work.  Any falling asleep tricks you guys have?

Anywho, all these masculine card challenges made me realize that I better get crackin' on Father's Day cards!  While in my zombie-insomniac stage last night, I whipped a bunch of these cards up using my scraps.  My pile is getting a bit too robust for my liking...

Used my stamp-a-ma-jig to keep the owls neatly in a row.  And LOVE the new foam stamp pads!  No more arm cramps just to get some decent coverage!  The owl is from a retired set and the sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  In clear mount!  I've been holding off getting the wood mount and I'm glad I did!  The new catalog features every stamp set in clear mount now (as well as wood mount)! Yippee!

Here's another one with different scrap paper.  Sorry about the kitty cat eyeball in the background.


He didn't wanna move from his chair arm!  He was digging the Hello Kitty blanket pillow and the husband's first aid kit as an arm rest.  Spoiled kitty.

Entering the first card in the following challenges
Kaboodle Doodle - All Manly Men
Love to Create - Special Guy in your Life
Clear it Out - Father's Day
Penny's Paper Crafty - I Love you Dad
D.L. Art - Card for a man

To a Fungi - Dedicated to Shar

This card is dedicated to one of my pals, Shar.  You can see her cute blog here at My Time to Create.  She wanted me to make something with Smiley Cards, so that I did!

The inside says "Happy Father's Day!"  I cut the mushroom out at 4", did some sponging, and added a corduroy button and printed pun.  I love puns!  Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

Entering this in the CAS challenge at the Outlawz- stripes, green, button
and also Scrappy Frogs challenge-incorporate red

Tie card for Father's Day

I'm so behind on Father's Day cards!  They were supposed to go out yesterday to get out to my friends and family on the mainland on time.  Whoops!  Better late than never.  Plus it gives me a chance to enter all the Father's Day challenges this week. :)

I thought I came up with a *genius* idea to tie a ribbon on a card to look like a tie.  Unfortunately, tying a ribbon into a small knot tie is not as easy as I thought it would be...

Ah well.  It looks decent enough, I suppose.  Maybe a skinnier ribbon would've worked better, or perhaps a satin ribbon would've been easier.  I thought it was kinda cute!

My Craft Spot's I love you Dad challenge
Getting Cricky's Anything goes challenge
