Father's Day

Can't believe it's May already, where has the year gone to! Having a busy week trying to straighten the house out and get ahead with some DT stuff as we're hoping to get away this weekend.
I had a lovely surprise this morning when I found I'd won a $30 shopping spree for some LLL Creations kits at My Memories Suite after entering a Facebook challenge. So this afternoon I got to choosing!
Made this one a few days ago as I need a stock ready to sell in June to raise more money for the Mongol Adventurers!


Image is from Kraftyhands, I bought a few of these sheets at the Sincerely Yours show the other week. Backing papers is from We R Memory Keepers and was a magazine freebie. Punch is from Martha Stewart. Card is finished with bakers twine and a sentiment from my stash.

Challenges entered:
Paper Take Weekly - anything goes
That Craft Place - one for the boys
Crafty Cardmakers - for the boys
Ooh La La Creations - make it manly
