To Dad With Love

My card for today is the card I made for Emma to send to her dad.  Emma chose all the elements and I put it all together:

I printed the Tatty Ted decoupage from the Docrafts Me To You.

The backing paper is also from the cd, as is the sentiment.

I wanted to keep the card simple so as not to detract from the very cute image.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Creative Inspirations Challenge - Fathers Day

Tatty Ted Birthday

Good Morning

I hope you've had a lovely weekend.

The challenge for this week at the CD Sunday Challenge Blog  is recycling.

Here is my card:

I used Do Crafts Especially For You cd-rom for my card and printed the main image from the decoupage section and the backing paper from the same cd.

I took some core'dinations card and ran it through my big shot with a happy birthday embossing folder.  I then sanded it to bring out the core.  I cut the stars using a die-namics die, again from core'dinations.

The ribbon is re-cycled and was wrapped around some pyjamas my daughter got as a present.  I tied it using the Bowdabra, fastened the bow with some bakers twine and then added a couple of star charms.

My cards is also for the following challenges:

Thinking Of You At Christmas

Good Morning

Well the days are marching on and I'm in a panic about whether I'll be finished in time!

The weather here has been so strange, I've never know so many hailstone showers!  And I've never seen hailstone so big!!!!  Hope you are keeping safe and warm.

My card for today features the lovely Tatty Ted.  I've had so many cards from high street stores with this character on, and my eldest daughter loves Tatty Ted, so I just had to treat myself to the cd-roms.

The image, backing paper and sentiment are all printed from the cd-rom.  Flowersoft was added to the main image.  I've used a combination of spellbinders and Marianne dies.  Mirror card has been used for the baubles.  Little ribbon bows and peel-off chains were added to complete the design.

My card is for the following challenges:

CES challenge - Use a bear

Rainbow Lady's Challenge - Tree and baubles (there is a tree in the main image behind teddy)

Thanks for visiting my blog today.
