Walk With Me Daddy - Father's Day Card







Today’s card project is for my husband from my son, for Father’s Day. With word cards so popular lately, I decided to create one for this project.





  I used Scrappy Dew’s Walk With Me Daddy Set.







I selected the red “Daddy” word layer, created a shadow layer in MTC. I duplicated the shadow layer and put it on it’s own layer, then flipped it. I used some basic shapes in MTC to create little tabs on top of the letters “D” and welded everything together.








 This is the inside of my card. I put each of their one set of sleeves on the outside, OOps! Don’t tell anyone. LOL Because there are a lot of pieces to my projects sometimes, I usually print a wire frame pattern out of my completed card in MTC.  I use it as a guide when putting my projects together because I work both up and downstairs. My Laptop is downstairs and I put my projects together upstairs in my craft area. I thought I’d remember where the pieces went, I didn’t, LOL







Supplies Used: 


ScrappyDew’s - Walk With Me Daddy Set


Martha Stewart -Twine and Ink


Fiskars -All Year Greeting Stamps


Recollections Card Stock


Sakura - White Gelly Roll Pen


Stickles - Turquoise





Have a great Sunday!


 Happy Father’s Day Rob! Mr. ScrappyDew   :):)

Grandpa Father's Day Card







Today’s project is a Father’s Day card for my FIL, from my son.  I used Scrappy Dew’s Gram and Gramps Set




The cut flowers and leaves are from Birds Cards The teal flowers are Recollections Jar flowers. I also applied some Stickles to the center of them. I think Stickles are my go to item when crafting. I use them for everything. LOL




This is the inside tag. I used Porky’s font, which resembles a child like font. I Split the letters in MTC and then nudged them close to each other and did a Weld. I also created a Shadow layer, nudged each line close together and then Welded again.


To create my project, I used the Ancestry paper stack by K&CoMPANY  Plus, some additional colored cardstock by Recollections and Bazzill. Inked and chalked some of my edges and pieces.




This is the back of my card. I used Penny Duncan’s Shaplie files. 







 I hope you enjoyed my project and thanks for looking!

Water Park Fun Tent Card - MTC Challenge










I created this card for this weeks challenge, on the MTC Forum. You can get more info Here 


With summer fast approaching, this will be a great set for all your water park layouts!





I took various parts of the water and tucked them in between the frame of my card. I added some water to the outside so it looks like it’s spilling out of the water tube. You can see from the photo below just how small the pieces are. That is why I printed and cut them by hand. I still did not get a chance to calibrate my new cutter for Print n Cut yet.










I used the Swirl embossing folder for the water.










I used the Bubbles embossing folder for the light blue background. I also applied some Glossy Accents to the water and the small splashes. Added some Recollections jar flowers and a Rhinestone. I was not sure what to add in the corners and it needed something. LOL


On the back for my sig., which I forgot to take a photo of. I took some of the water, added a white shadow layer and added my info.





I hope you enjoyed my project. Thanks for looking.
