Get Well soon Dad!



I created this card for my Dad who is in the hospital.  Dad LOVES the color blue and Gold Finches. I know that even though this might not seem like a masculine card my Dad will love it : )



I chose one of my favorite, retired, CTMH stamp sets for the sentiment.

I will be adding this card to three great challenges : )




Here are the links to these challenges.  I hope you will consider joining the fun!!




I am a little behind on my blog visiting because Blogger wont stop harassing me as they make me prove I'm not a Robot! but I will pace myself and get to each of you as soon as I can! : )

Have a fantastic weekend friends!! Thank so much for stopping by : ) 

Patti

Supplies:
Sentiment is from "Card Chatter - Sympathy" by CTMH

Love how you've done this card especially for your Dad, that makes is so unique and so very personal. Hope he gets well soon? Love the layout and the colours and how you've taken the flower off and onto the background x

Not only will your dad love this card because it's absolutely gorgeous, he will love it because you took the time to create it! I truly hope he will be out of the hospital soon and back to a full recovery quickly. Hugs! And I just wanted to say...(shhhh don't tell) I completely ignore those I'm not a robot things and my comments seem to post with no problem. Have a great day! I'm doing on this post...

Jeanne said...

Patti, I adore this card and so will your Dad! My Dad would love this also... very much a bird/flower kind of guy. Any gardening and nature appreciation definitely came from him! Love CAS details, beautiful coloring... what is not to love! As for the Retro Rubber sketch, very ingenious to flip the sketch so that your sky worked so well with it. Hope to see you in the Retro Rubber gallery often!

Beautiful CAS card! As long as a card doesn't have bows or glitter, they can be masculine in my opinion! LOL I love the goldfinch stamp!! As I am typing this, I am looking at some on my feeder. I really need to find that stamp! Thanks for playing along with us at Retro Rubber and hope you will join us again soon!

So pretty and Dad will love it. We also have finches here today, they are wonderful to watch out the window while I do dishes.

Kim Heggins said...

This is so beautiful...love your sweet little bird. And I really love that your card is just as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside.

What a beautiful design Patti. The delicate blue in the corner is perfect. I'm glad you mentioned the Blogger robot issue - I've been having it too.
