Brave, Strong Dad (Beth Duff Designs)

Here we go again with another week, Happy Monday!  I've got a lot to share this coming week.

Today I have a super cute card I recently made for a friend who welcomed his second child.  I feel like the when an event like this happens everyone needs a little bit of encouragement.

For this card I used the solider image from Beth Duff Designs Called "land that I love" it was a free digital stamp with purchase. (not sure if it's still available but I wanted to share this card with you anyways) I chose this image because my friend Tim who I made this for is always wearing camo and the sentiment was perfect to encourage him as a dad. He's a brave guy and very strong and I know he loves his family a lot.   The word dad was from was from the digital stamp set Bearded Dads which was a freebie around Father's Day time.

After printing the solider out on the printer I got to work coloring him.  I used The camo background was some scrapbook paper I had in my collection and then TN2 for the skin, DG2 & DG3 for the camo and TN7 & TN8 for his boots. I used some cream colored card stock from Micheal's on the camo background so this guy would pop and I also popped him on using Scotch mounting tape.  Then to finish off that cream card stock I took Memento Tuxedo Black ink and just sponged it on the edges to just make that panel pop a little bit more too.  To adhere everything together I used the scotch Advanced Tape Glider.



Thanks for stopping by today!  Be Brave and strong in whatever you do!

Get Kids Crafty May Blog Hop Gardening theme

It's that time of month again where I share a fun crafty project that I made with my kiddo Riley for Get Kids Crafty. Hello and thank you for joining us for the May Get Kids Crafty! blog hop! We are thrilled to have you! Our theme this month is gardening and our kids have created some AMAZING projects to share with you! We had a lot of fun creating our project this month. We made a bumble bee mobile.  Both my kids love the song bringing home my baby bumble bee. Especially my youngest Liam, it seems to usually calm him down when he's upset.  So we created this fun project to the theme of the song.      First we had to die cut our bees, Here is Riley playing with an already cut bee in the Big Shot machine.      Here is Riley turning the handle on the Big Shot machine to cut out all our bees. We had to do 16 in total one for the front and back as you will see in a little bit. Here is what the finished bee looks like and the die cut that we used from
