*** Cutie ***

 Good morning,

Hope it was a good weekend for you.  

It was hubby's birthday Sunday so visits from the family were a real treat.  

With Father's Day next Sunday he is sure to be just a little spoilt but so well deserved.
 He really is the best! 

Today starts a new challenge at

Cutie Pie Challenge #160

Theme:  The Bear Essentials 

I have used a pre-coloured image.  Just love it when these are available and I always take advantage.

This cutie is called "Teddy with Flowers"

The sentiment is a Lawn Fawn Scripty Bubble Sentiments and die set, coloured with Copics.

*** For the Boys at Fab'n'Funky ***

 

Hi folks,

Thunderstorms as I schedule this post.  No complaints though because we really need the rain.

It's time for a new challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #527

where the theme is "For the Boys"

For my card I've gone back to a much loved style that is not very trendy but still one I like.
and I know you are probably thinking I've lost the plot putting a ribbon on a masculine card.  
Well.. it is supposed to represent a bowtie as this card is going to a very dapper fellow.

 

The papers are from an old collection, number buttons are Tim Holtz. Sentiment die is a Sue Wilson.

I would like to enter the folllowing challenges:

Dare 2BArtzy June Challenge

Dragonfly Dreams June Challenge

Incy Wincy Designs Challenge -  6.20

Thanks for visiting today.

I hope you get a chance to play along with us this week.

hugs,

*** Happier Days ***

 Hello folks,

What a gorgeous weekend we are having.  High of 28 with sunny skies.

Hope it is a lovely day where you are.

Today starts a new challenge at

Sweet Stampin Challenge

where our lovely team leader Wendy has given us a Masculine theme

I've coloured with Copics a digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil. 
The sentiment, stamped in Memento Black Ink, is from a free set by Simon Says Stamp.
  I masked the image and stenciled the MFT brick background with Tim Holtz Distressed Oxide Antique Linen...looking a little more yellow than I expected.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

CRAFT Challenge #600    6.10

Little Red Wagon Challenge #604  6.09
