Shelter from the rain.


This card was made for the new challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers. The theme is Fathers day.
My Dad was always there for me, I am sure  you all have memories, maybe not a Dad but some one you could turn to for a little comfort and love.
For this card I used a variety of papers that blended well together . The die cut Umbrella Man needs no introduction, as many of us use this on our projects. The stamped wording is  from a Sheena Douglas set.

Please pop over here for all the details  and see what we have all been making.
The challenge sponsors this time are The Paper Shelter and Woodware

Thank you for stopping by, your comments are always appreciated.
