Hello again, my friend Friday

Friday again!  Oh God!  This was a "short week" for me at work because I took Monday off. However, it has been very intense.  So, Friday, again, means special.  

Hope your Father's Day weekend is full of surprises, good moments and love. 

Today I will share two simple projects. First one is a non traditional Father's Day card for a groovy cool father. I know exactly who he is but won't tell...in case he reads this before he receives the card. 


The cool thing about this card is that I made it inspired by scrap paper I was going to throw away. I used the negative of a shape I cut too many times the other day and then I filled with patterned paper and placed over a stamped background. 


The other project is a tag I made to include with a gift. I wanted to achieve imperfect coloring using watercolor pencils. 


I first stamped the image and then colored the background around. Then colored using a water pencil and touching the tip of the watercolor pencil to catch the color. 


I then colored with yellow around the girl and stamped the sentiment next to her. 

Tks for stopping by. I will link this post to Unity Stamp Co blog for the Friday's Friends with Flair, so leaving a comment gives you the opportunity to win great prizes.
