This is the Father's Day card I made for my hubby - the father of our four kids! I have a challenge going on over at
Sundays With Crissy, and this month the theme is tags or tickets. I made a tag that doubles as a book-mark (if he so wishes to use it that way). I was really inspired by the layout on one of my DT's posts this month and kind of copied it. Here's the card that inspired me by
Carole.
Here's a pic with the tag pulled out:
I've entered the following challenges:
Fab n' Funky: Polka Dots (hard to see, but they're there- light gold polka dots on the large blue DP!)
I used my computer and printer to type the message on the tag, except for "You mean the World to me" which is a sentiment from the JustRite "Kindness" set.
I used my digi image from last month (not a new release) "
One Cool Cat" and coloured him with the following Copics:
Umbrella red part: R24, 29, C3, 4
Umbrella white part: C0, 1, 3
Cat: YR21, 23, 24, 27, E99, W5, 4
Sunglasses: E15, 18, 19
Chair: YG25, 97, W4
Water: BG01, 10, 11, 53, blender 0
Sky: B0000, 000, 00, blender 0
Sand: E81, 84, Y28, W5
The die cuts are from an older Cuttlebug tag die set I picked up at Michael's a few years ago. I'm not aware of the name of it.
