![]() Ah, a great challenge this round at Cardz 4 Guyz#320 - embossing, wet or dry! I definitely have to turn to my Legendary Ride suite for this one - I can't get enough of the Metal Plate EF! I have another of the illustrations from the collection sheet of DSP, too - check out this spiffy motorcycle rider! He's all business, lol. I floated him over an embossed sheet of Galvanized Metallic CS, and added my sentiment on a large circle. At the last second, I colored in the headlight of the motorcycle with a Pumpkin Pie Blends Marker, too, a fun highlight! I even used a few of the "bar" style embellishments, I've been stewing over how to work these in for a WHILE! Legendary Ride Stamp Set; Ready to Ride DSP; Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Galvanized Metallic & Pumpkin Pie CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pumpkin Pie Blends Marker; Stylish Shapes Dies; Metal Plate EF; Pumpkin Pie Twine; Adhesive-Backed Studs; #C4G320.

![]() Very nice - Cardz 4 Guyz #298 has a Father's Day challenge for us this week - good timing! Today is the day I get to break in the new Brewed For You stamp set - I got this bundle from my downline Barb, who accidentally ordered more than one - I have SO been there! Turns out, this is a really fun set - wait'll you see the dies! (Next time!) For today, I did a stamped background using the pub glasses - I added some foam to each, plus the beer, of course, lol. I finished with a detail strip of the He's the Man DSP and this sentiment from our departing Happy & Heartfelt set. I love it when it all comes together! Brewed For You & Happy & Heartfelt Stamp Sets; He's the man DSP; Sahara Sand, Crushed Curry & Basic White CS; Early Espresso & Crushed Curry Inks; Ornate Frames Dies (retired); Rustic Metallic Dots; #C4G298. ![]() Oh gosh, there's 5the cutest inspiration pic for this week's Cupcake Inspiration #520's Father's Day theme! Love that 'stache! Now, it just so happens that my Da has a mustache like this, and so even though we're not supposed to take our inspiration cupcake TOO seriously, I couldn't resist bringing on the handlebars, lol. I still have my old Mustache die from 2014, and I combined it with the strongman from Guy Greetings (2018!) for my envelope, along with this cute sentiment from the current Ride the Range set - seemed apropos! I went ahead and put a Father's Day greeting inside from Guy Greetings while I had it out, too. Can't wait to send this one to Da!

Hope you can get in on some "square" action with us at this week's Fab Friday #215! Normally, I'm a real dud when it comes to odd-shaped cards, even square ones, lol. I'll usually just make tiny ones, like 4 1/4" square, so they'll still fit in a regular card envelope. But I was doing some stash-diving last week and came across a little stack of 6 1/2" square envelopes - no clue where these came from! That said, I decided to go for some bigger real estate today, and managed a full 6" x 6" card, made possible by also finding some old 12" x 12" CS hiding back there, too! When I spotted this perfect Dad sentiment in Best Year, I knew I wanted to try it with my Welcoming Window, which I thought would complement the square shape. Love it! Can't wait to see YOUR projects this week - be there or be square! Wait, be square either way! Welcoming Window & Best Year Stamp Sets; In Good Taste DSP; Pear Pizzazz, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake & Basic White CS; Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz, Crumb Cake & Pool Party Inks; Rectangle Stitched & Window Flower Box Dies; Genial Gems; #FabFri215. ![]() Man Cards 2021 Class One 12 at 3 PM!

I ran straight to My Meadow for this one, I was thinking of the little wheelbarrow right away! I built a little scene with the barrow front and center, and used Pretty Peacock for my accents - love this In Color! I hunted around for a sentiment, and finally came across this one from Butterfly Gala - but I have a Happy Father's Day from the My Wonderful Family Paper Pumpkin inside - this card will be perfect for my Da - he has a HUGE 2 acre garden down on his ranch outside Austin, and I can just picture him out there puttering in the kale, lol. This'll be my hint to add some pretty flowers, too!

I know my sweetie is a master griller - that boy can cook! This card is kind of a joke about something that happened here recently - a neighbor had a little trouble with a grill fire next door while we were out in the pool, and hubby ran over to help calm the inferno real quick - I've been teasing him ever since, lol. I figured I would use the Apron of Love for this card, but then I got the idea to use the Everyday Hero set, and gave him a grill toll instead, lol. We all need a grill hero sometimes!

For this one, I couldn't resist grabbing my Everyday Hero set off the shelf when I was working on yesterday's Retro Rubber card - another fun guy set that just didn't get enough catty-time, so far as I'm concerned, lol. And I LOVE that this set has male AND female heroes, lol. Today, though, it's all about the dude! I wanted to take a few of our new colors out for a spin, too - surprisingly, Balmy Blue is growing on me, how about that! Yay, Daddy (that's a our daddy pep rally cry around here, lol), you're the best - always!

With the tree part of the collection, it just seemed natural to pull out our awesome new Rooted in Nature set, and some Wood Texture DSP to go with, lol. I tried to sneak in the other elements, and play with shapes and layering a little. Last of all, the UPS man came and brought my last order for me, which had my new Basics Adhesive Sequins - I thought these looked kind of Crumb Cake-y, so I added a few of those, too! Woo hoo!

I've repeated the links list below, so you can hop along and celebrate the guys with us! For mine, I decided to show off an alternative card for the latest Paper Pumpkin kit - Manly Moments. How could I not go for it with a title like that?? I ruthlessly scavenged some parts from the kit to make this new set of layers on my own card base, and used some of the leavings to create a stencil for my envelope front (even manly cards can't have naked envelopes, lol.) I added some old Crumb Cake Taffeta Ribbon, and some old dark gray sequins to go with the touches of silver from the kit. Pretty, but manly, too, lol. The Pumpkin lives! Now hop along to Sara for some more dude-ness! Manly Moments Paper Pumpkin; plus, Gray Granite CS; Mossy Meadow Ink; Crumb Cake Taffeta Ribbon (retired); Dark Gray Sequins; #TSOTMasculineHop.

I think it'll be great for In{k}spire Me #349's Mothers' or Fathers' Day challenge! I decided to take on Father's Day for this one, and I wanted to try something punny that's been brewing in my mind for a bit, lol. One of my fave sheets in the gorgeous Tutt-Frutti DSP pack is the rich and yummy papaya sheet - YUM! And hey, "papaya" has "papa" in it, hmmm. Thus this card was born. Sorry, blame it on Dad Jokes!
