FS306 Deer Birthday

This weeks Featured Stamper 306 is Gail aka GailNM. Loved gallery gazing as Gail has fantastic skills! I kept going between 3 creations and finally decided on this masculine Thankful deer card. I needed a birthday card for my brother in law so this was perfect as I got that taken care of now. hee hee  I kept the layout, theme, and colors. I changed the stamp, turned my dp the opposite way and added some pearls.  

This is a digital image from Delicious Doodles called Deer and Fawn. I have colored these deer with my chalks again as digi's and me just don't do well together ink wise. Added some of the cheery lynn flourishes with sprigs from my MS punch. My deer panel I dry embossed with the oval shape and then made sure to not die cut out the antler. I really like how this turned out. Hope you get to play and stamp today!

Love you Deer

Welcome to Day two of Dare To Get Dirty Challenges! If you are wondering what all the fun, games and chatting is about check out it out HERE!

I do not have a sewing machine and the little one I bought while in the Dirt Pile isn't working now. I can't figure out why it won't work, so I did some faux stitching for you. Now I was trying to be all cool and fancy with a fun pattern... Not so much I know. ha! However my hubby won't care as he loves my work and will appreciate this none the less. This fabulous image was gifted to me with the owner's approval as this is a digi and I can't do those. This is called Deer+Fawn from Delicious Doodles. I really wish that was in rubber as I LOVE it and can use this for ever male in our family. I colored them with my SU chalks from like 10 years ago. I like how it turned out all soft with the chalks though. This also fits my Dare To Get Dirty Challenge, how fun is that? hee hee Hope you can get dirty with us this week! Have a great day!

Masculine Thank you

I am just amazed that July is just about over. There are so many things to get done before school starts and I am not ready yet. EEK! Lots coming in the next few weeks so I am trying to get all this green bean canning done so that I can get other stuff done. Pears and tomatoes are not ready till the end of August so I get a wee break in August which I will need every bit of. I am sure you are tired of hearing about the canning! ha...
On to my card today. This is a fabulous digi from Delicious Doodles Shop called In The Harbour. Again I pulled out my chalks from ages ago and colored up this scene. I really really like this image! Very simple masculine thank you with a touch of piercing and some swiss dots on the bottom panel. I need about 5 more cards like this right now but this will have to do for now.

Don't forget this Saturday is the Dare To Get Dirty Challenges over on SCS! I am so excited for this years challenges! My favorite stamping week of the year. Hope to see you there. Have a fabulous day!
