Happy Father's Day!

Hello Crafty Friends,

It is always a stuggle what to get my dearest husband for Father's Day.

Socks he has enough, perfumes and books too. No wishlist.

So I noticed we only had one beer glass left and so I ordered six new

beer glasses ans some bottles of beer to fill it with.

Tonight I will coock something that goes perfect with a glass of beer.

Ok, not an original present, but just what we needed :-)

At least I had the right stamps to make the matching card!!

They are all by Stampin'Up! with matching dies.

The sets I used are Bubble Over and Mixed Drinks.

De sentiment is from Guy Greetings.

A pity you do not see the Nuovo glitter on the beer glasses.

This is going to be a Happy Father's Day!

Hope all your men will have one too.

Thanks for looking and

have a creative day!

 

Happy Father´s Day!

Hello Crafty Friends,

Last Friday I had my club of card makers

at the care home. 

We made some Father´s Day cards.

For the cards I used some dies and stamps from

Stampin´Up! and from my stash.

Also some beer glasses I printed, for these

ladies are not very good in coloring.

On this card you also see a Dutch sentiment

saying `enjoy this`.

The SU! set i used is called Mixed Drinks.

The bubble die is from my stash.

On these card I used some printed beer mugs and sentiment.

I make pre-cut and assample all the right materials

for the card in a bag, The ladies only have to assemble the

cards. Cutting and glueing is something they can do.

They love this way of card making I introduced to them.

And this is the card I made for my husband.

I treat him to a nice dinner in a restaurant this evening.

I wish all dads and granddads a very

Thanks for looking,

stay safe and

keep crafting!

Happy Father's Day!

Here you see my little goodie for

my husband, a very good dad of 2 

plus bonus 2, in total 4 daughters.

I made a tag to go with the present.

I know my dh has enough socks, but when I noticed

these, I just had to have them!

I knew i had this fun stampset from Stampin'Up!

called "Everyday Hero". 

It is a set from last years catalogue.

For the tag, I used versafine black ink

and the colorors are oxide distress inks

mermaid lagoon, candied apple and 

squeezed lemonade.

The super hero is colored with zig markers.

Wishing all DAD's a wonderful day!

Art Neko for Father's Day

I made this card for Father's Day with stamps from

the Art Neko Marine sheet2 and is also on the

Art Neko Blog. Here I share more detailed pictures

on how I made this card.

This is how I started the card. Take a regular card and from the inside

cut a strip of 1 inch away until the middle fold.

on the fron side of the card I cut only part of the 

1 inch strip. (I cut on both sides 1 inch).

Fold these strips towards the front of the card and make

it look like the collar of a shirt.

Next I took the shell stamp and walnut stain

oxide distress ink and stamped it on a piece

of orange cardstock.

I cut the cardtock in two and taped it to the

front of the shirt.

Next I took a piece of 3 x 3 inch copy paper and started

collage stamping on it and also colored it orange.

This is the finished piece of paper, now ready for folding into a tie.

Here you see the finished tie. I add also here the

folding template, that I found on the internet:

If you click on the picture, you can see a larger version.

Here on the detail, you see the tie added and the

collar fastned with 2 little orange brads.

You can add any sentiment to your liking.

Thanks for looking

and have a creative day!

Sunday Scrap Page: Opa

I hope all dad's are having a great day!

Here is my scrap page with only men on it.

This time this dad is granddad and he is enjoying this new role!

I used Club Scrap papers

Michael Strong stamps

and a digital sentiment by Create with TLC

I made these decorative ties by using the template below

to cut out the shape. Then I used Michel Strong's

paisley stamp to stamp the ties background.

For the letters I used Michael Strong's  alphabet 

stamps and a matching oval punch.

Feel free to download and use the template.

The sentiment is printed with the computer

and cut out with some metal dies.

Thank you for looking!

Have a creative day!

CS Picnic: Apron

Imade my husband another card too for Father's Day

because he got anew bbq today and we had a real

fun BBQ dinner party with the family.

I made this card with the digital version

of Club Scrap's Picnic kit.

It is also a great card for invitations

for a BBQ party, here my template for you

so you can make this card too.

The card measures 4 inch by 8 inch folded in half.

The pocket measures 4,5 inch by 2,25 inch incl. the 

glue parts, that are folded around the front of the card.

I printed the blue scare paper from the digitalkit

to cut out a smaller size of the apron to use

for decorating the front.

The glove and the utensils also come as clipart

in this digital kit.You can make themany size you need.

The text is printed and made into a tag

to put into the pocket.

BTW you can also add a recipe inside the card.

As a gift you can hang the apron

around the neck of a bottle.

The pocket is decorated with a 

technique from the latest 

Technique Junkies

newsletter called: Gradient Markers.

Have a creative day!
