ColorThrowDown #248 - Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, Pretty in Pink and Cool Carribean.

After a month away from crafting and card making I am trying to ease myself back into challenges. I liked the color pallet for this challenge at Color Throw Down so I played along.


Just to show you what I've been up to in that month long hiatus I will share some photos.

My daughter Holli, her husband Glenn, her son Zackary, her stepson Cameron at Ham's Orchards May 2013.

Last but not least that gorgeous close encounter with the moon on June 23, 2013.

Best Dad Ever

This is my dad's Father's Day card. I can show it here and on FB because Dad doesn't do the Internet. At 84 soon to be 85 in August, we are so lucky to still have him with us. He went through by pass surgery about his 80th birthday. They said he had 5 blockages then. He's over come that medical issue. Dad is originally from Louisiana, that's why I chose to make this scene scape card for this Father's Day. He and Mom live in Texas now with my sis. So this card will bring Dad back to his roots so to speak.
Regardless, we hope Dad has a very Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day 2013 to ALL the Dads out there!!!
