Happy Birthday Daddy

Today is my Dad's Birthday.  I was able to spend some time with him on Friday.  He attended a conference which was half way between our homes so I met my parents in the area and they brought my daughter too.  She doesn't have any classes on Fridays so she was spending the day with my Mother shopping while my Dad was attending the conference.  I joined the girls and then we all had dinner together.  When my Dad comes to visit me, I usually have several handy-man jobs that he helps us with so Mo's image was perfect for him since he usually goes with his tools.  My second card is using a stamp from Verve and a sentiment from the Halloween Club at TLC, Create.  My final card is using paper and a stamp from TLC, Create.

Hi Lisa you put my to shame with all your wonderful cards and you've been so busy. Especially love your card you made your Dad for his birthday. This is a super image for a D.I.Y masculine card. What makes it so much fun is your added embellishments, buttons are perfect on masculine card but I just adore the screw brad excellent. Your design papers all work great together. Great card Lisa and thanks so much for joining us this week at Sweet Sketch Wednesday and good luck.

What a stunning card. So creative design. Designing looks to me so tough job, i have worked for the Scratch Cards Printing and designing company and i realized there that it needs so effort and concentration. I appreciate your work.
