Yay - it's time for Pumpkin Day again over at MPC0616-All About the Guys!  This week I'm also using this sketch from TGIF #59!
I can't seem to get enough of this new In Color, Dapper Denim!  I think it's perfectly named, because I think of it as a very comfortable blue, lol.  Today it seemed just right for a little stenciling background for my Layered Letters "Dad" - another comfie word, lol.
Make sure to stop by My Pumpkin Challenge - we love seeing your ideas!

Dad's Jams

I'm really liking As You See It #136's "Dad" theme!  AND, I have an idea for combining it with this bright color scheme from TGIF #58!
I have to admit, as soon as I put these two challenges together, ALL I could think about was these crazy tropical print Jams my Dad had at the beach one year - his were bright orange (his favorite color, lol) with black tropical flowers on them, but I think this pair does those justice, lol.  They were THE cool swim trunks to have when I was a kid, and we had all pooled our money to get them for him, not really believing he would wear them.  Well, you know dads - we saw those Jams for years to come!  Coolest Dad ever!

So excited to kick off our June My Pumpkin Challenge, MPC0616 - All About the Guys!  I'm combining it with this fun sketch from Can You Case It #122!
So, ironically, the CYCI sketch seems practically BASED on one of the card styles in this manly kit.  so what the heck, let's run with it!  I'm also squeezing in one last blast of retired stuff - farewell my Botanical Gardens DSP - I hardly knew ye! Lol.  Seriously though, this card celebrates that today is MOVING DAY for all the lovely retired stuff into the Room of Retirement, because - NEW CATTY OPENS TODAY!  WOO HOO!  Check the links on the right side of the blog page to start those shopping engines racing!  (And yes, I've already placed MY first order, lol!

I like this fun sketch from Match the Sketch #126!  I want to combine it with the masculine CAS theme over at Watercooler Wednesday #69, too!
For going all manly, I knew I had to pull out Guy Greetings, and I LOVE mixing that one with the now retired Adventure Bound DSP stack - so many cool prints in there!  After that, it was all a matter of picking out patterns and textures, and mixing and matching for the right combo with the stamps!  I started with the hats, but wound up on the shoes, so of course, I have the "no one else could fill your shoes" sentiment on the inside, too, (with the strong dude!)

Today's sketch is from Try Stampin' On Tuesday #266!
Today my bear wanted to come out to play - isn't he handsome?  So well-dressed, too, lol.  Hard not to be thinking of my hubby the whole time I was making this card - we sure had a good time on our cruise!  He's so awesome!

Yay!  Thanks to SU-per Challenge #94, I get to sneak in one last Father's Day card, whew!  I needed it!  I also think the color challenge at this week's Create With Connie & Mary #360 is perfectly manly, so I'm throwing that in, too, lol...
I tried, but I couldn't stay away from my manly fave, Guy Greetings.  All the sentiments in this one are so perfect for the men in my family!  I decided to make this one for hubby, who's becoming quite skilled at managing my hare-brained ideas, while still allowing for my, how shall we say, freedom of expression?  Good job, baby!  You should have been a tap dancer!  Oh wait, does this mean I should have done the shoe stamps?  Argh!

I so adore our challenge this month at My Pumpkin Challenge #0614 - Everything Happy!  We all need more of that!  And it's perfect for all the happy little pieces and elements in this month's kit - Hey, Man!
For my first offering, I stayed fairly close to the suggested kit designs.  But of course I wanted to add SOMETHING!  I might be headed towards burnout here, but I decided to sneak in some baby goodies on this Father's Day card - who can resist these cute little framelits?  Trot out some ties in coordinating colors, and I have just the right add-on for my kit card!

Bringin' out the trios at this week's Clean & Simple #284!  Yay!
I seem to be on a "man-card" kick these days - for me, that means the "watch"word (God, I crack myself up!) is simple.  No frills, no sparkles, deeper colors.  This card ended up fitting that bill perfectly, and let me get to play with stamp set that I don't pull out enough to boot!  Let's face it, when you love your Stamp-A-Ma-Jig (SAMJ), you love sets like this!

Woo hoo!  Happy New Year!  I've been taking a break for a few days, but thought I'd at least hit the first day of the year with the Crew!  I resolve to keep on craftin'!
This layout from Paper Craft Crew #74 gave me another chance to show off another awesome new stamp - available to you for ordering any day now, lol.  Tried to keep it manly - makes a nice Father's Day card, I think!  I also featured a few cool accessory goodies, including the awesome new Basic Metal Buttons - perfect!
