Fathers Are...A Work of Art

Hello Stamping Friends,

    Today I wanted to showcase a new stamp set called Work of Art.  There are many samples out there in virtual world and this is a CASE, (copy and share everything) of one of those cards.  I wanted this card to be more masculine for my hubby's father's day card, so I chose Hello Honey, Bermuda Bay, and Cajun Craze for my colors.  ;)  I hope you like it and even get some time in your stamping space this week to get creative!  

Be blessed and happy stampin'

Hello Stamping Friends,

     It's been a long time since I've posted, as you can see.  ;)  Life is crazy sometimes and this has been one crazy season.  But, I did get a little time to stamp and color this image from Bloom With Hope; a new hostess set in the upcoming 2014-15 Stampin' Up! catalog.  I can hardly wait for it to go live on June 2.  It's so exciting!!  I also used the new Blendabilities markers (available August 2014) For my inspiration, I used this theme at Paper Players.  

So, here is my card:
