This card uses a great digi image from Kenny K's - she is coloured using my promarkers and I did a little bit of decoupage on her arm/top.  This card is for my sons birthday tomorrow from his older sister, a long time ago we were watching Euro Vision and there was lots of ladies dancing in not a lot of clothing, when my daughter asked her brother what he thought he said 'nice boots' which we all thought was very funny.  Inside the verse just says 'nice boots'.   The glittered black paper comes from a DCVW paper pad that I brought cheap in Hobby Craft the other paper was from my stash.  I finished the card with three white buttons and some blue gems.

Like lots of people I find fathers day a very hard time as I lost my dad in 2008 to a sudden heart attack.  As time goes on you think things will get easier and the longing to speak to him to pass but it doesn't you just learn to live without.  Whilst I was doing fathers day cards for my father in law and others I came across this poem and thought it was lovely - it doesn't have a name on it so I do not know who wrote it but I thought others might like it. You never said I'm leaving You never said goodbye You were gone before I knew it,  And only God knew why A million times I needed you,  A million times I cried If Love alone could have saved you,  You never would have died In Life I loved you dearly In death I love you still In my heart you hold a place,  That no one could ever fill It broke my heart to lose you,  But you didn't go alone For part of me went with you,  The day God took you home.  ...

This card uses a freebie digi image that I have had for ages, sorry I cannot remember the lovely blogger who shared it.  I have coloured them with my promarkers and used my blender pen to add a slight effect. The papers have all come from my stash.  The scalloped bit was a left over from a Kanban sheet, ribbon was in my stash but was black and pink so I used my promarkers to change it an orange colour.  Sentiment was done in word and inside the card it says '... yes it's all your fault! Happy Fathers Day'. This card is for the following challenges: Card Patterns - The sketch that I followed Tuesday Throwdown - Critters Passion for Promarkers - layers Thanks for Looking x Nicky x

This is a quick and simple card - its uses the bike image from a Kanban set I was brought ages ago mounted onto a piece of mirror board. The map paper comes from an old A-Z of London my friend brought me for a £1.   The sentiment and background colour to the sentiment was done using my Daisy Trail software on my PC and printing it out.
