Enjoy Your Day!!..High Hopes and Mojo Monday

This weeks Challenge at the High Hopes Blog is to use scraps...and like everyone else...I have a quite a few. In fact I have a great deal of them...I think I should be doing these types of cards a little more often!! The sketch I used is this weeks Mojo Monday 92...what a great sketch for this image!....or for that matter ...any image...lol!

I made this card for my hubby for Father's Day!...this Fabulous High Hopes image is called "Sweet Dreams". Although I don't have this stamp....Crissy kindly shared the image with me..Thanks Crissy!!

This image so reminds me of my DH.....as he is always napping....lol...He works very hard...and the fella is just so tired when he gets home. Often after he gets home from work we go outside to have coffee on our swing....he leans over puts his head on my shoulder and catches a little nap...So Precious...lol.

On with the card...

I used copics for base only ...under the prismacolor pencils and h20's to color this image. *(be sure not to use copics over your prismacolor pencils or your copics tips will be ruined)*

Ink - memento, bashful blue for background...tutorial here.

Paper - Georgia pacific white, dcwv, kraft, and unknown scraps

Accessories - gold cord, button, jute, corrugater tool, stitching

We had a fabulous holiday!!...the cabin we rented and the weather was just perfect!! Although we had tons of fun!!...When I get back from a holiday....it always makes me appreciate our home a little more than usual...and so fun to see how the garden has jumped. The only damper on it all ....is all that darn, "get home laundry"...lol.....oh well....

Have a Wonderful Weekend Everyone!!....and Thank you so much for your Kind comments!!

Father's Day Card

I haven't been around the last while because we are on holidays. I just thought I'd drop in for a bit to share the father's day card I made for my hubby. I did not have very much time to make this card with him around. I thought I could work on it a bit while we were out camping.. but no way...I have no idea what I was thinking in that regard....... Anyway I made it and gave it to him yesterday...better a little late than never....right?

We have a few more weeks of holidays and are off to Clear Lake Manitoba Thursday morning. We spent the last week travelling and camping in our Okanogan (it is a old large yellow camper van) We call it "The Beast" because it is such a gas guzzler. We bought "The Beast" a few years ago from my husbands parents. They had it sitting for years in their yard not being used. It was in pretty sad shape cause it leaked through the vents all that time. DH fixed it up with the guidance of a fella he knew that fixed old campers. I made curtains and cushion covers and we have been good to go. I really enjoy going out in it because we can make our own meals in it...simple meals but better for us than eating out all the time......Well enough for now..

Here's the Father's Day Card....

Stamps- Stampin Up...sorry I can't remember the name of the retired set. (got the image from my daughter)
