Paper Craft Crew Card Sketch #220 PCC220

Hello and Happy Wednesday!  Are you ready for Thanksgiving?  I hope so because you're running out of time!  Well if you are ready, why not head over to Paper Craft Crew and check out the awesome new sketch challenge??

I decided to play with a stamp set that I haven't been able to spend much time with.  It's a fun Lawn Fawn Set called Dad & Me.  Here's my card...

I knew this would come in handy as my hubby loves anything related to fishing!  

And since this fits the bill, I'm going to enter this card in the Watercooler Wednesday Masculine Theme Challenge!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings, Tina

SIP Challenge #51 - Sunsets!

Hello and welcome to Stamp, Ink, Paper's Challenge #51!  This week's challenge is a theme and it is one of my favorite themes.. sunsets!

So this week I totally went out of my comfort zone and made an outdoor camping themed card for my daughter's sweet friend, Lauren.  Lauren LOVES to camp and boat.  They live in Middle Tennessee where the mountains looks like huge green hills!  lol  I will never forget the first time I went to the Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee.  I was living in Memphis at the time and had traveled from Memphis to Middle Tennessee numerous times to visit my relatives and was very familiar with the hills but had never seen a mountain.  In my mind's eye a mountain was a huge rock, and certainly didn't have any grass or trees.  Well man was I ever wrong!  The Great Smoky Mountains looks just liked the hills around my Grandparent's house only bigger!   

Since the mountains, water and camping are Lauren's Happy Place, I just stamped Happy on the sign.  I used a combination of My Favorite Things stamps and dies, Lawn Fawn stamps and dies and Mama Elephant Dies.  Whew!  That was a lot of different stamp companies.  Oh and of course I used Stampin' Up Cardstock.
