Birthday card

Hi well hope it was a great weekend for you, our weekend was okay. Was a pretty laid back Saturday but Sunday late in the day hub's decided to change out our faucet well that was a mistake...lol What we thought would take 20 mins took an hour plus. So next time we replace a faucet I will make sure we have lots of time. Before we moved in we had a leaky bathroom faucet so we got a new one that one took 3 hour to just get a nut off. lol Alot of the items like faucets are the original 1987 fixtures. So pretty...lol Slowly we are working on getting the home updated but when you run into the bolts wont move cause they have been in the same spot for 20 years its a pain.

Anyway early Sunday while my better half was watching nascar I was able to enjoy some craft time. I needed a guy card and I always have a hard time making cards for guys. The day before I had went to michael's and just happen to pick up this stamp set I used for the words and candles. They were marked down to 5.99 and there photo polymer, thought that was a good deal. So I used that along with sweet treats cart. I am not in love with the pattern paper but thought it was a good paper for a guy card. Anyway glad its made cause it has to go out today. I will be busy this month with cards have lots of birthdays to make cards for coming up. Well thanks for looking.

Father's day card

I bought camping critters about two weeks ago for one reason that is this little deer fishing. I could only pick one cart and I thought you know what I have tons of carts with frilly stuff on it and I need something I can use on guy cards. What I like about this cart is, its cute, funny, and will work for men who love the outdoors or even kids. I knew fathers day was coming up and I wanted to use the fishing deer for his card. He loves fishing and likes to hunt. So tonight I used the cart for the first time and have to say I love it.

How I made this card was I cut the river scene but wanted the river to be a little longer so I hand drew it to the same paper and cut it out. Just extended it a little tiny bit. And then I cut the fishing deer out he was easy to put together, the scene took a little longer. Other than to two die cuts it just some background card stock. Added stickles to the mountains tops and on the fish to try for a fish scale look.

Before I close up this post just wanted to say welcome to all the new followers. Am sure most of you are from link party at Getting Cricky with k Andrews. That was a fun link party, found os many talented crafter's and bloggers. I have lots of blog feed to view now..lol Its great. But no matter how you found my blog glad to have you here.
