Big, Bad, Dad!


Big Bad DAD!

It is my DH's birthday this week so I have been busy making his cards while he is at work, then hiding the evidence again when he is home!  This is his card from our two boys...

This fantastic stamp and sentiment set is from Tiddly Inks, isn't he the coolest Dad you ever saw.  I even made a quick rummage with the kids in the garage for some shiny nuts and washers!

Material Used; Digi stamps from Tiddly Inks, Copic Ciao's, SU Kraft, Basic Black and Riding Hood Red card stocks, DP 'Be A Man'  and Rub-Ons from Creative Imaginations, nut and washers from the garage.

Challenges entered;

Meljen's Designs; Clean and Simple
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge; It's A Mans World
Bee Crafty; All About The Image (alternative craft item is the hardware)
Stamptacular Sunday Challenge; Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails!
Creative Inspirations Challenge; Recycled Element (that would be the nut and washers)
Paper Sundaes; Metal

  9. That image gave me a chuckle. Liking the bolts and washers as embellies. I'm enjoying having a look at all these great male inspired cards - loads of wonderful ideas. Thanks for drawing my attention to your blog and letting me visit.
