AW, funny I'm not really thinking of my late Dad particularly today as the anniversary of his passing in on Wednesday (18th) which is a whole lot more poignant to me. Sometimes the anniversary falls on Father's Day and that is a killer. BJ
That's really cute and probably rings true for a lot of dads! I'm glad you liked my man collage - yes it was supposed to be funny so I'm glad it hit your funny bone. When my dad was alive I might have tried to make it into a fathers' day postcard. Although my dad had a good sense of humour and didn't really like mushy cards I don't think this would have been quite up his alley so I actually had a bit of a giggle thinking of what his reaction would have been had I given him this one.
I am very blessed to still have my dad going strong...he will be 82 this year! unfortunately, he will not get a hand made card this year (gasp!) because I was working on a scrapbook for him...the card I bought had a primitive cartoon with a dad on the front holding a baby in a diaper at arm's length. Inside it says "thanks for putting up with all my crap! Happy Father's Day!" a bit crude I suppose, but pretty funny too. Enjoyed this cute cartoon from your friend- it is classic! hugs dear...
Hello dear friend! Just wanted to stop by and wish you a good week. I'm going to be busier then normal this week and won't be able to post on Tuesday. I should be ok for next week though. Sad to miss all the fun. Will be doing my ICAD and some SOC fun I'm sure but just not much computer time. I did a quick Around here post for now on my blog if you want to read. I love your posts here, looked at them thru tired eyes, stayed up too late these last nights with kids home on break. I even napped yesterday which I rarely ever do.
Awe, I love all that vintage goodness - and the portrait of a Dad is perfect ;0 I wanted to thank you for your suggestion regarding the SOC - I KNOW, right? There are so many of us playing that it's hard to keep up! Unfortunately, it would be difficult to follow link numbers as they are often changing. Due to the fact that the giveaway is taken from the link list, I often have to remove or change links that either did not follow the criteria or accidentally linked to the wrong page. SO in the past people have given their numbers, only to have them changed by me :/ Thank you for your thought though, I promise I can take all the help and suggestions that I get ;) xoxo

Bleubeard and I welcome you
Art, including the journey, background techniques, sewing on both paper and fabric, new experiments, photos, failures, and successes will be shared on this site. I have removed my e-mail address until such time as I can get it to work again. Thank you for understanding. You can always leave a note on my blog and I will visit you.
Please check out my Previous Collaborations link above to see what projects I have been involved in over the past 12 years. Current and ongoing projects only are shown below.
Occasionally, Silent Sunday will showcase photos of my home, neighborhood, or community. A picture is often worth a thousand words.
Feelfree to drop by every second Thursday of the month for my Second Thursday Tutorials. They are interspersed with my other Tutorials found at the link page above.
Click on any lesson you might have missed or want to review
Click on the above image daily and help feed hungry dogs and cats. You can donate cat litter, too. You simply answer two questions (one about cats and one about dogs), and whether your answer is correct or not, you have just donated kibble to help feed both shelter animals and those in need.
I will create the art, critique things I feel are important, and put pen (and sometimes glue) to paper, or fingers to keys, while Bleubeard will mostly watch, supervise, or sleep.
Music that inspires me: my steel drum friend, Joseph Peck

Funny! We're having a quiet day home...sushi to eat while watching the rain fall...
