Card for dad
Ok guys, as a lot of you know my dad has been through quite a lot the past year, first a heart attack last Christmas then diagnosed with cancer a few months ago but he is a trooper and doing well at this time. I hate making guy cards but wanted to do something to let him know how proud I am that he keeps trudging along through all of this.
Both of my grandparents on my fathers side are American Indian and my dad loves anything related to our heritage so I thought this image by Papelitos would be perfect plus they are having an "Anything Goes" challenge so bonus! The inside says "Can still kick butt!" Colored with copics and Shinhan Touch Twin markers, the papers are Simple Stories Harvest Lane and the little paper buttons are a gift from my buddy Elaine. Ok, hope you enjoyed something a little different from me today and that you all have a wonderful week. Fall is definitely in the air around here so I will be pulling out some sweaters real soon!
