Father's Day Take 2...

This is the Father's Day card I made for my hubby.  I used another one of Karen's Doodles images called Time to Relax.  This is a great visual for my guy.  We have the hammock and pillow (purchased at Pottery Barn) but our weather has just been the worst lately and he has not been able to put up his posts.  He has decided to build a pergola above it.  I know is will be super.  He decided no screws or nails...he will be using mortice and tendons.  He is a wood worker at heart.

I kept it simple so he could just see himself already taking a nap. If only our pup was as good as this one.  With us completing the back yard, putting in flowers & plants and leveling the dirt for hydorseed (IF it ever stops raining) Zoom thinks he can just start to dig in the planter areas and all over the yard.  Tomorrow while I am at work and Nic is at football camp he will be in time out!  In his kennel in the garage watching soaps.  That will show him who is boss!!!

Just a close up for ya.  Our hammock is great red sunbrella fabric so I decided the rope should match.  How peaceful.  

Happy Father's Day #1

I found a new digi artist called Karen's Doodles and this wonderful image is called Top Chef and totally fits my dad.  He works in the food distribution industry and is a wizard at the grill. 

I used the It's A Guy's Thing papers from CTMH and did some hand stitching as an added touch.  I don't have a ton of male embellishments so I added some buttons.  My dad received it in time and was even going to fire up the grill tonight.  I tried to keep the card simple.

Here is a close up of the chef with his trusty friend waiting for something to fall on the ground. All he needs is some chicken and vegetable kabobs.  That would be super yummy.  Now...if our rain would stop we just might be able to do some grilling.
