The best Dad!


Hi everyone, I've had fun making a few cards today and thought I'd post this one that uses some of my new goodies that I've been accumulating!!

I fussy cut this Katzelkraft dog stamp and coloured him with Prismacolor pencils, french grey 10 and 30%, and tombows for the black spots. I love the goofy expression he has!

I've used a few diecuts, the brick wall, the speech bubble and the DAD text, so I'm linking up to the anything goes diecuts challenge at Happy Little Stampers.


I sponged my background with pumice stone distress ink, then spritzed it with water to add more texture. Using ink, stamps and sprays is the theme at the CAS Mixup Card Challenge, (it's ok just to use water as your spray element too). I've also used fussy cutting,sponging and heat embossing.


It's anything goes at Word Art Wednesday.

It's also anything goes at Addicted to Stamps & More.


At Cas-ual Fridays it's time to colour.


Supplies:
Stampin Up Just Sayin stamp and die (retired); Katzelkraft dog stamp; versafine ink & clear ep; Sizzix alterations mixed media die set #3; Impression Obsession alphabet die; distress ink; prismacolor pencils; tombows.

Thanks for visiting,

I love your brick wall and the color of it. That dog is a hoot. He looks like he hears dad's car in the driveway and is waiting for him to come in the door.
