Wee Henry Fishing

I made this cute easel card for my son, who loves to fish. This images is from Hambo Stamps and it is called Wee Henry Fishing. I love easel cards because they can be put on a shelf, desk, counter, whatever and enjoyed for a long time. On the inside, I have a nice poem and a letter that I wrote to my son about growing up, his accomplishments and loving who he has become as a young man. The sentiments are from CTMH stamp set. Thanks for taking a look.

Masculine Birthday Card

 

Oh, I am so tired of the cold and wet weather, so doing summer cards seem to be a relief. I have this pelican image from Hambo Stamps which I just love. I made this masculine birthday card with my son in mind. He loves to fish and keeps telling me how relaxing it can be. So, I thought I would throw a bit of humor and facts into his card. The sand and shells are all from CTMH, along with the papers. I may be entering this into a few challenges this week. Thanks for looking. Have a great day. :)

Over at Dude Time Doodles, they have a weekly challenge for making cards for dudes. I love this site because it forces me to make guy cards, which you know are a challenge in themselves. So, they have this nice pelican image At Hambo Stamps (digital) and I decided to use it on my card. Most of the papers are from CTMH. Thanks for looking. Have a great day.

Hambo Hoedown Challenge Continues. Woo Hoo

Wow, that first challenge from Hambo Stamps was fun using the football girl image. Well, I was rooting for the Pittsburgh Steelers but the Packers won. Oh, next season will be here sooner than we think. I am going to use my footballl girl and bear image next year to make a whole ensemble of football party displays to cheer on the Steelers again.

Now, at the Hambo Hoedown, there is another challenge that I am participating this week. I received a free image for participating in last weeks, so this week is eyed monster. How cute. So, here is my card for week two of the hoedown. Come join in the fun. You can find them through the link on my sidebar. My papers are from Close to My Heart clover green and buttercup. The bottom heart border stamp is from Martha Stewart (last years valentine set) My monster was colored with watercolor pencils and CTMH clover green ink and the heart was tulip CTMH. Have a great day and thanks for looking. 

Super Bowl "Go Steelers" Card

Wow, where has time gone? I started to make this card Friday because I saw a digital challenge, but I am just now getting it posted. I made full turkey dinner for super bowl Sunday and just some brownies, shaped as footballs and jerseys for dessert. But, we did cheer on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Lot of good it did. NOT. Ok, next year. So, here is my card. Thanks for looking and have a great day.
