H2H 9 Challenge entry - Father's Day Cards

Here are my H2H 9 Challenge Entries.  If I had to choose one I would pick the one with the words around the circle as my favorite.  Instead of doing a rectangle card like the sketch suggested, I chose to do a circle card since I had some in my stash ready made that I needed to use up.  I used my Cricut Expression machine to make the circle cards using Sure Cuts Alot.  The paper is not CTMH, not sure what brand it is sorry. The paper for the DAD label is CTMH White Daisy Cardstock.  I also used CTMH White Daisy Cardstock for the base of the cards.  I sponged the cards edges in Chocolate Ink and I also used chocolate ink for the other brown stamping you see and Buttercup ink for the Argyle Stamp.  I used the following CTMH Stamps: Connections and the set that came with Felicity CC.  I also used the tiny words from a non CTMH stamp set...not sure which brand it was.

Close up of Father's Day Card that is my favorite.  I love how the word border turned out.  I feel like they represent characteristics that makes a great Daddy.

The inside of both cards are the same. I left room to write a personal message to the Dad's in my life.

recent Artwork - Family

For this layout I used Grace Paper from Close to my Heart.  I used the posterboard alphabet stamp and it was my first attempt at that particular type of paper flower.  What do you think?

Recent Artwork- Adorable

This layout idea came from my Scrapbooks Etc. Magazine.  It was my first try with this particular flower/pinwheel look.

Recent Artwork- Look at that Hair!

For this layout I used Sweet Leaf, Buttercup, and Chocolate Colors from CTMH.

For the Title block I used the technique of placing a piece of chipboard under the paper and sanding the paper to expose the white core which in this case made a flower.

Recent Artwork- You make me Smile

This was the layout I created using the Twitterpated Worshop on the Go from CTMH. Several techniques were used in this layout.  I stamped the title with the Posterboard Alphabet and colored it in with chocolate ink and a sponge.  I used liquid glass on the small dots on the sorbet paper.  I scrunched a ribbon in the corners, handstamped the chocolate backgrounds, randomly placed buttons and brads, and even stamped and then cut out a few images to make die-cuts.

Here is a close up of the ribbon and liquid glass technique.
