Thanks for the push

This is my second last post for Doodle Pantry this month as a guest designer, "sigh". (I'm going to try for one more on Thursday) My son asked me to make him a card for his boss who is leaving the company at the end of the month. Steven is a computer programmer and so is his boss, so... I couldn't resist! Believe it or not I actually hadn't done a card with these guys yet, how perfect is that! And I made the card red, white, and blue, 1 because its masculine but 2 because Doodle Pantry is sponsoring Paper Playtime Challenge and the theme for the challenge is using a digi which is red, white and blue! Hop on over and take a look! I've also entered this into:
Penny's Paper-Crafty challenge blog: red, white and blue
Sketch N Stash: sketch
Sketches In Thyme: use any sketch
Craft Us Crazy: red, white and blue and/or summer theme
Rainbow Lady's Challenge: digi day
Sew Many Challenges: dry embossing
Stamp Something: celebrate with red, white and blue

Stamps: Doodle Pantry Computer Ants
Paper: whisper white, pacific point textured paper, cherry cobbler
Ink: bashful blue ( on large white argyle paper)
Other: prisma markers, cuttlebug argyle embossing folder, stampin up perfect dots embossing folder and modern label punch, spellbinders deckle rectangle

  5. OH see... I don't think I've ever seen this digi before!! It's so cute and love the sentiment, it's perfect for these pushy li'l guys, LOL! When I saw the thumbnail in my email I thought it was ants on an iceburg in the ocean (white with the blue) LOL! Glad I clicked thru! Although that would be cute as well? =) heehee
