MPS Father's Day Challenge

Yikes, I'm down to the wire here.  My Pink Stamper is having a drawing on her site: http://www.mypinkstamper.com/ for a Cricut Expression.  The challenge was to create a Father's Day item.

I put together this very easy card this morning.  I used old leftover Making Memories Travel paper from a 6 x 6 pad.  The Dad's Day cut is from the Designer's Calendar cartridge cut at 1-1/2" and the grill is from the From My Kitchen Cartridge cut at 3".  The ribbon is some more leftover ribbon. 

 The finished card size is 4-1/4" x 5-1/2".

NSD Challenge #1 - "Mother Dear, I Love You So"

It's going on midnight & it's time to go to bed.  But, before I do I finished this card for My Pink Stamper.  The Challenge: make a scrapbook layout, card, or other item for your mother or someone dear to you.

I took a lot of time deciding whether to us my favorite Basic Grey paper or not.  I decided to us it and not collect it.  This paper is from the Kioshi Collection.  The green behind the wheel barrow is not from this collection.  I used the card feature on Walk in My Garden and cut the card front to 5-1/2" x 5-1/2" with Design Studio.  The "Mum's Day" was cut from the Designer's Calendar cartridge, also in Design Studio.  I used a Sakura Gelly Roll pen in white for the flower centers and dots on the card.

Project 365 Title Page

Finally - I have the title page done for my Project 365 Book.  Susan & I spent a long time discussing how we were going to do our pages as far as a background paper goes.  The picture is one that I took a few years ago before owning my digital camera.  This butterfly was having a really great time posing perfectly for me that day.  Then a few minutes later a praying mantis landed & I was able to take pics of that too. 

Anyway, I like to take pics of weird insects that I find around the yard in the summer so I will probably incorporate some of them into the Project 365 book.  I'm on my way & hopefully it won't take me a week to do one 12 x 12 page or I will never get this done.... LOL
