DT Post for LEJ Designs challenge: Daddy dearest

Good morning all! And a happy Tuesday to you!

This morning there's a new challenge starting over at lejdesignschallengeblog - its theme is a male card and the title is daddy dearest - obviously any male card will be acceptable but the challenge is highlighting Fathers day which, of course, falls on Sunday!

The challenge can be found here. There are prizes for the first two names chosen at random from cards or other projects entered - first prize is 3 digis of your choice from lejdesigns and the second prize this week is a pack of artbars from Derwent, our sponsor that you can visit here.

So my card this week features some time stealing pixies - I thought they were quite appropriate for fathers day since it always seems that the older you become the quicker time goes - and obviously my dad is older than me! There's logic there somewhere - anyway - its a fab digi - so what do you think of my card?

I made the background paper using distress ink pads direct to paper - china blue and walnut stain and used some cut and dry foam to blend the edges. I did a similar thing with the tag except the brown ink was applied to my craft mat and the blue dyed tag patted onto the ink.I've coloured the image using promarkers and added a heart charm. The 'Dad' was diecut by my sister in New Zealand - she has a laser cutting machine and occasionally sends me words to add to my cards!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
male card at panpasteluk
anything goes at craftyourpassionchallenges
Father's Day at craftysentiments

Here's hoping you have a fabulous Tuesday!
