Simple Salutations Challenge # 55

All for the men this week challenge on Speedy TV Simple Salutations.
Make a card for the man in your life (or someone who is close to you) for any occasion.
My better half likes eagles and he has a great collections of them.
My card will go to him. I added cuttlebug swiss dots folder to go along with the dots from the scrap paper pennants.  My sentiment is simple but I think it's great to let him know how special he is to me.

The challenge is not to use any designer paper. So I used three color cardstock to make my card...I also used cuttlebug swiss dots folder.
The sentiment I used "Background Fun" from Mark's Finest Stamp Set
I like the pink and gray color combo with a slash of black.

Tutorial Time Challenge...

This is one of my favorite technique to do. Tutorial Time Challenge on Speedy TV is to make a Crimped Envelope Card...What I did is take a napkin took the back off glued it to the front of my envelope  let it dry...
Cut off the excess napkin and put it through my crimper (I did pass it through  twice). I inked, added a ribbon, butterfly & sentiment.
Perfect for a summer card.

Inspiration Challenge # 20

Inspiration Challenge choices are colorful, black & white and a slash of pink. I did a black & white for a guy so it is simple but as I was looking at the black & white cake I notice the black stripes in the background. I added three small dazzles in the top right corner but I might change that to something more bold...
Speedy TV has many challenges. Check them up who knows you could win a free stamp...

Friends of Speedy TV

The challenge on Friends of Speedy TV is "Summer Fun". There is so many ideas to make a card with the theme of summer fun...I picked my card and made an ice cream cone cut from my Cricut.  I love ice cream especially
strawberry flavor on a sugar cone.  I enjoy it more during the summer months.
