Thanks Dad

 

Dave and I recently returned from a week out in beautiful Colorado.  While there, we were able to spend quite a bit of time with my 82 year old father and have him show us around his breathtaking state.  My dad has always loved the western part of our country and has always loved to travel.  I am just like him in that regard as Dave and I love to travel and one of our favoite states that we have been to is Colorado.  While there last month I took this selfie of dad and I. 
 
I used this sketch from My Scraps and More Sketches:
 

 
I am also am entering this page in Scrap Our Stash's June Monochromatic Challenge.  I love my aqua papers!  I dug deep in my My Mind Eye's drawer for these.  My 5 embellishments I used on this page are:
1. Canvas stickers (round "fun" stickeron lower left and the small round stickers in the upper right)
2. Round chipboard camera piece and arrow banner
3.Die cut round "memory" sticker
4. Enamel dots
5. Thickers


Edited 8/13/15 to add: I am linking this up to Paper Issues current issue -- It's All About the Face


 
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my blog.....happy hump day!
