S & S Sketch #110

Well it's Sunday so another Sketch Challenge over at Stars and Stampshttp://www.owhstarsandstamps.org/2012/02/sketch-challenge-110.html.  Here is our sketch
And here is what I came up with.

My image is from DeeDee's and I colored it with Copics.  I used the Diamond Plate ef and the designer paper  is from my stash.  The card stock is from SU as are the gold brads.   Hope you are all having a great Sunday.  I'm just waiting for the Daytona 500 to get started, then I will be doing nothing for the rest of the day but watching TV.  I know it sounds very lazy, but you have to do that every now and then to recharge. This is the first card for my next OWH box.  I am shipping one out tomorrow with lots of Mother's Day cards in it, so now it's time to concentrate on those Dad's out there.   See you all again tomorrow.

  2. What a great father's day card! I love the image, but the great embossing and brads really make this one stand out!
    I wish they'd just postpone the race for another day now, because I've been having a constant dropped signal all afternoon so I won't be able to watch it anyway. Grrrr!!
    I have all my cards for OWH stamped, sorted, and bundled, but I need to get them into a box and mailed out too! You've inspired me to get that done, so thanks!!

  4. Hi Donna - You did a great job on your card! I always still struggle with male cards and tend to end up with something whimsical instead!

    I love the little Bear and like the idea of adding brads...nice touch!!!

    Hope all is well! As it turns out the flight on Jet Blue down to Baltimore was totally changed, due to a big change they made in flight schedules. So.... to make it work, I'm now leaving on Thursday afternoon, which actually is fine and will give me extra rest time. It also was less money...a bonus! But, just goes to show me that plans do change and sometimes we have NO control! :)
