Time for some party inspiration!  Party Hat Birdbrain is a newer release by From the Heart Stamps and perfect for the party theme -- check out the hilarious sentiments which accompany this cutie!

Sketch courtesy of Tuesday Morning Stamps sketch challenge #306.  I had to place the 'Did Somebody Say Party' sentiment on the inside because this guy decided not to share front billing.

For my card, I chose an image from the Birdbrains line because they always make me giggle.  This one is a Father's Day card because I have to create them en masse -- I have three men to honor on this day!  The inside sentiment reads:  Hope you REEL in a wonderful day!  Happy Father's Day!

Hats Off to the Graduate!

Digi image and sentiment:  From the Heart Stamps 'Graduate Birdbrain'.  Cardstock:  GP110 white, Glitz 'Vintage Blue' DP.  Ink:  Copics.

It's time for more inspiration from I {Heart} Sketches courtesy of From the Heart Stamps
Here is our sketch with optional twist for this week's challenge:
For my card, I went with the sketch as drawn, but after I adhered all my little strips of DP I realized the image was positioned a bit too high.  Although I seriously considered trimming the white space and turning it into a square care I decided to add a sentiment instead, leaving more space on the inside for a personal sentiment!
