CS's Father's Day Blog Hop

Welcome to CS's Father's Day Blog Hop!  Thanks for joining us.

You should have arrived here from the talented
Michele

.  If you missed the beginning of the hop, please go back to the top of the hop with
Chris

 to start so you don't miss any of the projects.  There is Blog Candy offered, so you want to start at the beginning and read how to participate to win.

For my Father's Day project, I made a simple, one-page layout, and here it is:


Even though it is a simple layout, I felt that it really showcased the pictures of my Dad.

The background paper is from The Paper Studio's Little Boys and Their Toys paper pack.  All soid cardstock is Bazzill.  I cut the #1 ribbon at 2 1/2 inches using the Just A Note Cricut cartridge (loaded on the E2).  I cut "DAD" at 2 inches using the Old West Cricut cartridge.  I used pop dots behind the #1 ribbon, and here a picture of the side view: (sorry it's kind of blurry)



I am offering Blog Candy, which is a mini chipboard album kit by Me & My Big Ideas.  Here is a pic:




If you would like to enter to win my Blog Candy, please leave a comment and include a way to contact you.  I'd love for you to become a follower as well, but it is not required to be eligible for the prize.  I will draw the winner on Tuesday, June 21st, and will use Random.org to draw the winner.

Thanks for hopping along with us.  Remember, if you leave a comment on every designers blog hop post, your name will go into the drawing for the Blog Candy offered by
ChatterScene (Chris).

Next up on the hop is the wonderful
Roberta.

    Fantastic LO!!! Your dad looks like he would be loads of fun to hang out with. I really like the Old West lettering. I don't think I have seen many projects that use it. I like the Font, though.
    Happy to have hopped in and became a new follower!
