Father's Day Card...

This year I seem to find myself committed to using products that I already have ( but yes I am still a shop-a-holic!! hee hee)..so I started with my dies... pulled out the one(s) that I liked in that moment.. then went looking for stamps to go with it....in the back of my mind I was thinking about my favourite oldest son and making him a non-traditional Father's Day Card...
I was pleased... :)
Now..how to deal with my scrappy addiction???!! hee hee

Graduation..

I was looking through my stamps when I came across this older set by Tim Holtz and I thought how appropriate it was for a graduation sentiment..I used the flower cluster stamp to create the background on the matt and behind the quote..
The design is simple, the banner style holds the focal image/sentiment and adds dimension to the card...and creating a vintage look, gives the quote a timelessness..
I guess the flowers means that I will be giving this one to a girl!! hee hee

The Sky is the Limit...

 

With Graduations just around the corner, it seemed time to get crackin' ..
It's not often I make a card without stamping ( on the outside )..but this one had the perfect sentiment right on the paper...!!
A little fussy cutting, a bit of distress inking....some glossy accents..and I had myself a bit of a Steampunk look...perfect for any graduate... or even someone on any new adventure!
