Father's Day Frame and Card Class

Hello Crafty People!

Today's share is a project I worked late into the night last night on.  On Wednesday, I have a class where my ladies are creating a home decor frame and one card for the special Dad in their lives.  Since there are so many ways to use Stampin' Up! product to make masculine projects these days, I struggled over the decision of what to make this project look like.  But in the end, I realized I had never done a piece with "The Open Sea" and a couple of my ladies had mentioned that they really liked the nautical theme for a masculine project, so that's what I ended up going with.

I can't show you the card yet, because I'm saving it for next week's post...so you'll have to be patient.  But know that it coordinates with this project, so if you like this one, please check back for the matching card!


Also, forgive the use of some retired products here...I don't usually use much retired stuff because it doesn't seem fair to show you a fun project and then tell ya "sorry, you can't get that anymore"...but a couple of these things (listed in red) are just too good to let go of!

As always, thanks for looking!  Comments and suggestions welcome!

OOPS! Challenge 222-Take 2!

Hey there crafty people!

Looks like I got mixed up and forgot that my posting day changed for the LNS Design Team, so, guess what that means?  It means you get TWO posts from me this week!  Cool, right?!

Soo.....you'll now see my LNS Challenge posts on Sundays, instead of Fridays!  To check out all the details, head on over to the LNS Challenge blog by clicking HERE.  You can check out the design team's samples, and upload your creations.  We hope you'll play along!

Challenge 222-Sorry to see you go!

So, for my second sample for this week's challenge, I wanted to show you guys what I made for the grandparents' Mother's Day gifts.  I got the idea from Erica Cerwin's Artisan Design Team post on the Stampin' Up! blog.  I think the only thing retiring from this project is the Tea for Two Designer Series Paper, but this paper fits one of my moms to a tee, so, I had to use it!
