This past weekend we finally had some beautiful weather here in Oregon. We bought a travel trailer recently and have been dying to take it out. I however don't like to camp in the cold and rain, even inside a trailer. Personally, I still like to sit by a fire and make smores. I said I wasn't going to this time. You know, that forever quest to lose weight. Well, I have been really good lately but, my daughter and her husband came and they brought the smore stuff and don't you know I caved!! Oh yeah, back to the post. So what does camping have to do with card making? Well, I can't take along my copics (too much work) but I packed my prisma pencils, my oderless mineral spirits, some 6X6 paper pads, images to color, and went camping!! I bought this darling image from
Lily of the Valley specifically for some Father's Day cards. My husband has been playing the wii lately when I craft or browse blogs so when I saw this image I had to have it!! This stamp is called
Computer Fun, but I think it looks like the wii console we have.
The sentiment is from the
Happy Circular Sentiments set. I used a couple of different punches so that I could enter it into the
Lily of the valley challenge this week. I was thinking about doing a comparison with my copics but if I do that I may never get it uploaded!! LOL. So one thing I want you to notice is his shorts! My husband wears camo shorts all the time!
I actually got 3 images colored while camping this weekend. How very peaceful to not have TV or a computer to steal my time!! Thanks so much for stopping by. I love visitors!
I also am entering this card in the following challenges:
