Relax.....
















Morning All, Hope you are having a nice relaxing Sunday!!

I'm flying by the seat of my pants again to get my card into a few challenges before they close! I finished this last night but had to wait until this morning to get some piccys. This is my first attempt at a Joy Fold card. I'd never heard of them until I read the challenge on Squigglefly this week. The tutorial here on Split coast stampers is great, tricky bit is trying to get decent pics!! The digi stamp is called 'Forgiven' by Crissy Armstrong at Squigglefly. I like the way the card has come out & I am also impressed that I managed to find the right pawprint button in my disaster zone of a crafting area ...lol. Papers are Basic Grey Archaic.
I think I might send this one to my Dad for Father's day, he doesn't 'do' football, golf, gardening etc so I think this might fit the bill. I'd like to enter him in the following challenges:

Squigglefly : Joy fold card
Stamp something: Use a digi
Totally Papercrafts: More than 1 fold
Simon Says Stamp: Father's Day / male card
Crafts and me: Distressed ( I Sponged the cream card backgound nestie
behind the image and also the edges of the papers)

Thanks for looking - think I had better go and tidy up a bit!!
