Smile with CCCC!

 Time for Team D's challenge over at Colour Crazy Craft Challenge.
As always the theme is anything goes with a hand coloured image.
Be sure to come over and join in.

Our sponsor is Star Stampz , and I have used  My Sweet Sunflower coloured with Promarkers.



The papers are an old collection (but still my all time fave) from My Minds Eye called "the Sweetest Thing - Tangerine".
I embossed the mat which the image is mounted onto with an embossing plate through my cuttlebug.
The Smile die is from Lawn Fawn and is available HERE.

Dad you are so A-MOOSE-ING

Hi, I am here with you today to provide you with my Bizzy Bec's  monthly dose of inspiration.

Bec has so many great Lawn Fawn stamps and Dies in the store, and they really are super versatile.
Along with being versatile they are also loads of fun.

As you can see here I have made a card for my hubby from the kids.  
The set I have used is called Dad+Me and the matching Dad + Me Lawn Cuts
The sentiment is perfect as he does think he is pretty A-MOOSE-ING.
The set also comes with different elements so you can dress up your characters a bit.
My husband always wears a hat outside and has glasses so I added those 2 images to my "father moose".


I used the stamps from the set to make the background, I just stamped the separate elements  with different coloured ink adding things until it looked ok.

Then on a separate piece of marker friendly paper I stamped the father and son with memento ink and cut the images with the corresponding dies in my cuttlebug.
I then popped up the characters with foam tape.

Thanks loads for joining me 
Lou
