Sunflower



I know I used this fun fold recently so I switched it up on this card and put the flap
on the opposite side for variety. Sunflower and leaves are from Gina K's A Year
of Flowers and colored with Copic markers. Sunflower saying is a stamp from
Paddler's Pack that I know I have had at least 10 - 15 years. Die cuts: Spellbinders
 Lg Circles and Big Scallop Circles.I added Washi tape  and gems for some contrast. 
This card is a thank you for a friend.

Happy Fathers Day

Lighthouse from Our Daily Bread 
 
 
 

 A few Fathers Day cards.  The first one is for my husband, the second for my dad,
and the tigers for my youngest son. The lighthouses are a technique I saw
on Gina K. and I was quite happy with how they turned out. Enjoyed using
my stitched die's.  Just noticed the anchor fell off my dads card, will need
to add a new one. Enjoy your Fathers Day!

Stamping with the gang

Had a fun day of stamping with the gang a couple weeks ago and we each brought
a project cut and ready to go to share with the others. I had to share the
fabulous creations we made with you!  They are in alphabetical order, no
favoritism.  Mine is last and has been on my blog previously.
