Happy Father's Day


Just wanted to pop in and share this year's father's day card that I made for my dad.  I kept it pretty basic this year:


It's 3.5"x5" instead of the standard 4.25"x 5.5".  The chevron piece is a die cut that I inlaid and then trimmed down to fit on the smaller card.  With a piece of the scraps from that I added some interest to the inside.


Thanks for stopping by,

Lime Splashed Thanks

I've been super busy around the house lately (cleaning things up and reorganizing... fun times!) so I've been out of my crafts space for far too long.  I decided I was due some real fun so took a break from all of the house work to play along with a couple challenges.

Here's the card I came up with:


Seems pretty simple, right?  It took FOREVER because I had problems with the white chevron piece.  I don't know what it was, but I just couldn't get the image stamped and embossed to my liking.  I think I repeated it five times before I finally got this one.  The black card base is the same image stamped then embossed with clear embossing powder to give a little pop to the background with out being overwhelming.

And a view of the inside:


The challenges I'm playing along with are:



Well I guess I've procrastinated long enough... back to the grind!

Thanks for stopping by,
