Happy Birhday Dad!


My dad is 75 today, September 21.  I wish him the happiest year yet!

I go out of my way to please my dad (most of the time).  There was nothing worse than having
my dad look at me and say, "I am so disappointed in you......"  UGH!  It was horrible!  LOL
Luckily, I haven't had to hear that for a long time..
Anyway, here is his birthday card from me.


Can't believe I forgot to take a pic of the inside.  There is a sentiment from Create with TLC that says
"Certified Antique".  TLC also is responsible for the sentiment in the sun.
The image and main sentiment is from Dude Time Doodles.  The sun and the bugs
are stamps from Our Craft Lounge
Everything is colored with copic markers.  There is sakura glitter pen used, crafty sparkles from OCL and some ultra thick embossing powder on the 'ye old guy' sentiment.
The button and waxed blue string are from my stash.  The punch on the bottom of the card
is one of the new edge punch and embossing sets from Spellbinders!  Love it!

This card may be entered in the following challenges:
Bearly Mine Challenges:  Button it up.
Crafty Sentiments:  Happy Birthday
Digital Tuesday:  Digi person image
Oldie but Goodie:  One for the guys
My Grafico:  Outdoor Fun
There's Magic in the Air:  Someone Special

This is too cute! My father used to hit me with the "disappointed" speech, too! Half the time I was wishing he would just yell instead of being disappointed! :D
