Happy Birthday Dad!

Happy Saturday,
This week at school was very hectic. I was working on progress report cards and individual reading assessments. Both were due yesterday. I'm happy to be done and to have the weekend here. One thing I have planned for this weekend is celebrating my dad's birthday at my parents' house. His birthday was Thursday but we're having the family lunch today.

With the busy school week, I don't have a lot of time to create cards, but I try to find the time to blog hop. I'm glad that I do because I find great inspiration and I found a new card challenge (new for me at least). I blog hopped over to Freshly Made Sketches for sketch challenge #8. Right away I liked this sketch and wanted to use it for my dad's card. I'll be back to this blog for sure. For this card I used Well Worn DSP. I really like this DSP, but I haven't used it until now.



Here's the card:


















Here are the details:

CS: Not Quite Navy, Cajun Craze, River Rock
DSP: Well Worn
Stamp Set: Bring on the Cake
Ink: Not Quite Navy
Embellishments: Early Espresso 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon
Tools: Big Shot, Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Decorative Label Punch

Have a great weekend,
Ana
