Avery Elle Guest Designer

 
There are only 2 more days of school (including today) for my kids and they are just super excited!  We have been enjoying the ball games and the weather was absolutely beautiful last night at my son's game.....perfect ball weather!  Then I think of those affected in OKC with the tornados......omg.  I can not even fathom what those people have lost.  So today, I am grateful that I have my home and my family. 
 
Sooo, I am here with my guest post for Avery Elle!  Today I've used the stamp set:  The Man.  I thought it was perfectly timed to use the "beer" image this week for my card as my husband has emailed me several "ideas" for him for Father's Day.  He sent me links to monthly beer clubs.......ok, if you know me at all, you know that I do not like beer.  Better yet, I HATE beer.....now give me a margarita?  Then I'm happy!  But back to beer.......since I do not like beer, I have NO idea what he would want.  So, I told him to pick it out and send me the bill!  LOL
 
Happy Father's Day

 
So to make this card, I stamped my "beer" bottles across the white panel and then stamped the "beer" image.......kind of like light to dark beer! hehe  It took everything I had not to add some glitter and shine to this card but I kept it masculine in its entirety!!!
 
 
Happy Father's Day2

 That's all from me today but I have one Avery Elle post left next week.  It's been so much fun.......there is still time to play along with the current Guest Designer Challenge HERE!!

Great card, Amy! Tee hee...that's how the beer bottles look here, when the family is all here. DH likes plain old Coors, so his is the light. DD likes a medium stout, and DS likes a totally dark and stout beer! You nailed this card :) Thanks for sharing, and congrats again on your guest spot!

Great manly card! I know that my dad would get a kick out of this. Love the "ombre" look of the beers. Fun, fun, fun! And I'm with you on the margaritas!! Bev
