I've used DCWV papers,cobweb and tassel ribbons, prima paper flowers and brads

I'm sorry this is getting to be a bit of a habit, but I can't remember where the digi is from . If any one knows could you tell me so I can credit them please, but I coloured it with copics anyway.

So about me!!!!

I'm Debs, in the day I run an upholstery business with my Husband of 36 years ( I was a child bride,lol) at night I hide away in my Bat Cave creating, I love all crafts, but my favorite is Papercraft, as a child I would not go anywhere without my colouring book and crayons, which is why I'm probably addicted to my copics.

I've just become a Nanar for the first time and have a gorgeous Granddaughter called Amelie, you might get a bit fed up of seeing her photo's, but I just don't care.

I'm really looking forward to working with the other girls and coming to see all  your blogs, I'm in Team A and we are going first, you have three days to visit all our blogs, Team B will introduce themselves on 29th June for three days.

Dads Day

Hi there, and Happy Fathers Day.

I thought I'd share my Fathers Day card with you,

When I was tiny my Dad had a green Morris Traveler. He can even remember the number plate.

I can always remember getting it loaded up with all the suitcases and dogs ready for our holidays.

Happy times.

So when I saw this digi last year I had to get it ready for today.

The digi is from...justinklined wacky-wheelz-digi-pack-morris  and I coloured it with copics, Grace Taylor papers,and some Spellbinders cogs

The Paper Shelter # 116

We've had gorgeous weather here this week, I hope it's been nice were you are, makes you feel like doing things when it's nice, I actually tackled my nettle patch on Sunday and the garden now looks twice the size it was. Which means twice as much gardening, I must admit I'm a fair weather gardener, but once I get motivated and start I really enjoy it.

This weeks challenge at The paper shelter is

"Pink & White or Blue and White"

This is a new stamp called Mad about Video Games, I have a Husband and 2 Sons that all play Video Games so I think this image is going to get plenty of use.

I paper pieced this one for a change, coloured his skin and hair with copics, used a Little Claire sentiment stamp, nestie, blue gems, papers from DCWV and Grace Taylor.

Don't forget if you play with a Paper Shelter image you have a chance of winning this gift voucher, it's worth $30. If you play with a different brand then you have a chance of winning three digis of your choice.
