wow . . . i have been a very bad blogger. it has been 7 months since my last post. i have been busy making cards lately and thought it would be a good time to start posting again. let's see if i can keep it up. so without further ado . . . on to my cards . . . dad's bday card sorry for the bad photo . . . it is very rainy, cloudy and dark here so i had to use the best light i had in the house. the card is based on fall-to-layout #26. ya gotta check out the clean & simple stamping blog . . . she has some awesome sketches that are so simple but look like you put a lot into them!! hehehehe patrick's GF's bday card inside of card from side it's hard to tell from the photos . . . but the color combo is purple and lime green. those are the colors patrick wanted . . . i woulda never done them on my own. i was a little nervous making this card because all of the examples i saw used a white staz-on ink . . . and i only had black. i gotta say . . . i am awful danged proud of myself . . . i think this card turned out awesome . . . and so does patrick . . . a-hyuck . . . a-hyuck.
my dad's birthday is today . . . so i made this card for him. i'm a little late . . . but better late than never . . . he should get it in the mail by tomorrow! :-P
