GARDENING SHELF

Hi Everyone

I hope your week has started well.

A very mixed bag of weather here today that's for sure.  One minute it is beautiful and the next horrendous!!  I think we have had a bit of everything except fog and snow!!

Well Father's Day is looming around the corner so I need to get a few suitable cards made .. .. not as easy as Mother's Day ones that's for sure!!  But we all love a challenge don't we. LOL!!!

So here is today's share:




This used:

Image:  Funstamps "FM197" Gardening Shelf
Sentiment:  Those Digistamp Boutique Tags again to which I added my own sentiment using font Mister Sirloin
Backing Papers:  DoCrafts "Wellington"
ProMarkers
Eyelets and Twine from my Stash Box

and that is me for today!

Super short and sweet.

Enjoy what is left of your evening.

Love

    All these gardening cards remind me of my Dad he was a keen gardener, sadly my first Father's Day without him but I have lots of lovely memories. Super card xxx

    Great guy card! You are sure getting your money's worth out of that CD with the tags. They look great on your cards...It must be nice to print the sentiment at the same time too! Do you fussy cut them out? They look like a die they are so "true".
    PS Love the Wellie paper!

    That's a great image for a 'man' card and I see those tags are coming in very handy.
    Forgot to say when you asked - we went all round the little villages around Ilam the other Sunday, then back through Shugborough and along the side of Cannock chase.

    Great card Jules! I find it hard to make masculine cards too, but that is what makes it a challenge isn't it?!
