Challenges

I have always thought Blue and Silver make a great color combo. This week in Moxie Fab World 
the   "Tuesday Trigger" is just that.  "Classically Modern"



 At  Our Daily Bread it is   ODBDSLC63 Sentiments Only
 At  Just Add Ink   it is a    JAI 70 - Round Sketch
 At  Fussy and Fancy Friday  A Card for a Man or a Boy
 At  Simon Says Stamp   Father's Day For a Male
 At Craft Your Days Away   CYDA Challenge #21 ~ Fathers Day/Special Man

My card for these challenges and my Dad:


I used my Round and Scalloped dies for the background, a Silver doily, embossed the "Dad", added the truly appropriate Sentiment from Our Daily Bread, and added a small pink rose, as I detected a dash of pink in the Moxie Fab World trigger.  Besides I think my Dad loves flowers more than my Mother. To mother they are work, to dad, life is only good if he can work at something no resting allowed.  (But he's in his chair a lot at approaching 89!!!! ). Dad is Dad and I love him.

Thanks for stopping by, enjoy the weekend and stay cool. Over 90 here and VERY humid.

The blue and silver together do look very striking. Thanks for using the sketch at Just Add Ink for inspiration.
