FATHER'S DAY

Hi Everyone!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend & all the your loved ones had a great Father's Day!
I was going to share these with you yesterday, but I never got around to it...very busy weekend!


The first card is one I made my dad, I got it in the mail a little late, so I was worried that he wouldn't get in time, but when I spoke with yesterday I was relieved to hear that he had gotten it & loved it! :) 


I used my copics to color in the Digi (Dustin Pike) w/my Copics & used some Glossy Accents for the cape

I didn't have any Father's Day Sentiments, so I made my own

The 2nd card Gilby made for his Daddy, I think it turned out really cute, let us know what you think.
The card shape was a Freebie from Scraptastical Kreations, Gilby entered it in their FB Challenge
The Sentiment is from MCT, I didn't have any Baseball paper, so we made our own on the computer.
Created the sentiment on the computer as well, Gilby is a Digi, but unfortunately we can't remember where it came from though

Gilby & I love your comments...his tail just wags away when he sees me smile!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!! AND SOME CHALLENGES

Hi Everyone!

Hope you are all having a nice Father's Day whether it be spending the day with your loved ones, talking to them or just thinking about them! When I spoke with my dad this morning, it sounded like he was going to have a great day just doing what he loves & that's Entarcia (wood working). He was happy that my mom made him eggs benedict for breakfast & she was making steak & baked potatoes for dinner (both sound soo yummy, but I'm on a diet). Was great talking to him, because he's not much a phone person, but I knew today would be a little different...it took him longer to say "let me hand you over to your mother". LOL, that's just one of the things that I love about him though!!!

Here is the card I made for him, followed my the card that Gilby I made for my hubby!!! Didn't realize it until after I made my dad's card that I had used the same image last year & the same paper line. I hope he doesn't notice when he gets it. Yep, I said tomorrow, I thought for sure he would have received it by Saturday, since I mailed it on Tuesday (he's in WA St. & I live in VA). Guess I'm going to have to start sending things a week in advance, I'll remember this next month when it's his birthday. Any hoodle-hoo, he'll be surprised tomorrow!!!

My hubby loved his card, also probably had something to do with how silly Gilby was acting!!!
Gilby was sooo funny, my hubby &  I both had wished we had a camera. When it was time to give him his card I called Gilby over to the couch, well he was soo excited when he saw that we were giving daddy a card! I told him to give it to daddy & as I was handing it to my hubby, Gilby snatched it away in his mouth & started to give it to me!!!!! He did this like 3 times!!! LOL, my hubby &  I were cracking up, it was hysterical!!! Even when typing this now, it still makes me laugh!!!
For as long as I can remember, my dad has had a Mustache, so I thought this would be a fun idea! I have a picture of him (I was just a baby), where he was wearing a fake "handlebar" mustache for a costume party!
You will want to click on the next image to see all the fun facts, especially if you're a fan of the Handlebar Mustache! LOL
He's wobbling

A LITTLE LATE......HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

THE KING OF MY HEART!

I have lots of fond memories of my childhood & adulthood playing poker with my family. Now that my parents live far away, I miss playing with them. So I thought this was a cute idea & I really like how it turned out.  What do you think?
  I forgot to take a picture of my Dad's Father's Day card before I sent it & I like to take pictures of all my cards, so he was kind enough to make a color copy of it for me.

Recipe:
Cardstock-Black DCWV~Red AC textured & just some plain White
Carts~George for shapes of cards
            IA for card symbols (Spades, Hearts, Clubs & Diamonds
            LL for small ltrs (drawn w/cricut gel pens then colored in)
            PSB for "Happy Father's Day"
Reads on the inside "To The King of My Heart"

GILBY LOVES COMMENTS...HIS TAIL JUST WAGS AWAY!
