I have just a really quick post for you today.
I have spent most of the day at the clinic with
my sweet husband while he had a medical
procedure done on his esophagus, so I am
spending time between
giving him some TLC
and my studio/computer.
I thought it would be fun to put something together
for this week's Embellish challenge and I knew if
I didn't get it done today, I would
miss out on the fun.
Ashley Cannon Newell is the wonderful host of
this challenge and e-zine AND is our guest
designer in The Cafe this week.
Although my grandpa's have long since passed on,
I was thinking of my grandsons and their love for
'Papa Paul' as I made this card.
I LoVe this color combination and I
managed some MAJOR BOO on this
project as I broke out some fabby
rub-ons from SEI.
The cardstock is Bazzill & the DP is
from The Paper Company's 'Mirabella' stack.
Everyone's favorite Loop border punch
is Martha Stewart/EK Success.
I used Spellbinders Scallops for the
dimension and centered it with a
fabric-covered brad from My Mind's Eye.
So that's it in a nutshell!
I will see you tomorrow night at
midnight, EST for the new challenge
from The Play Date Cafe.

Hi Sweetie! I hope your hubby is doing okay...making a guy card has to be so hard! My mind just naturally goes towards fluff, sparkles and cute...I don't think I'd be good at making something for a guy...but you really are! This is just perfect!!! xoxo Paulette
