The Beer Monster

Another of those sketchies from Let's get stamping had a few of the girls in a spin... had to have movement. Spinner, waterfall etc. Well just as I'm reading the deets, son comes in and asks if I have a fathers' day card he can give to my OH. Not yet... but it can be made before tomorrow. So armed with a digi from Pollycraft of a beer monster and a barrel from Dustin Pike, the beer glass I can't remember - sorry, I set to work. OH supports Hearts footie team so using the team colours of grey and maroon, I layered up the little toppers on a grey sliding mechanism fastening with silver brads from stash and added 3 little resin stars for a pull. The main image was again layered onto maroon and attached with foam pads for dimension with a little computer generated fathers' day sentiment. The little gems from crafty feelings as a finishing touch. All colouring in done with promarkers. Well there we have it, another fathers' day card from a gal that doesn't do them, lol.
I'm entering this into One Stop Craft Challenge this week - One for the boys and the Polka Doodles and CAS-tastic challenges challenges for Father's day.

fathers' day

That time of year ...... fathers' day coming up. I always have found this kind of celebration to be hard, mothers' and fathers' day that is. Both my parents have been estranged to me several times in the last 35 yrs for various reasons so this is probably why. Nevertheless, I have managed to produce a card for Tellen's Place and Pear Tree Designs challenges this week. It's maybe a bit different from the "norm" - but then I like to do that. I won't bore you with any more of my life.....
I have used images from Tellen's Place , Murdra from the dark images selection as a "story teller" and one of the freebies that get given away. All other bits from stash with computer generated sentiments.

Pear Tree Designs and Flowers

There I was, happily putting together a card for Pear Tree Design's current weeks challenge when I realised it wasn't just flowers they required but a sketchy as well to go with it. OOPS. Luckily, nothing was actually stuck down. A few of the elements will do for another card, waste not want not, eh? Anyway, after a bit of moving about, changing this and that, THIS card was made.
I used a freebie image from Tellen's Place, paper from papermania and some from a mag freebie from aaaaagggeeesss ago, a couple of the flowers from Crafty Feelings, and other bits from stash. Bit of a rush job to get it done before work, but it's done.
