MEN!
"Any man can be a father, but it takes someone very special to be a dad".
This month in Australia, we celebrate Father's day! So I thought it would be nice to pay tribute to the men in our lives, with a "Men" themed challenge!
Here are my examples:

This month, I have created a set of 3 ATC's using stamps from our guest sponsor for September, Crafty Individuals! A big "Welcome Back" to CI - we love having you here! :)
As usual, the theme is open to interpretation. This month, your stamp doesn't have to have a man on it - but your creation must use at least one stamp, and be "Men" themed. For example, you could create a father's day card using stamps, an ATC with the word "Man" on it, or a scrapbook page about your husband, father, or other men in your life. Just don't forget to include a stamp!
Here are the close ups (click to enlarge):


I have used:* Crafty Individuals stamps - CI-126, CI-077, and CI-144.
* Crafty individuals ATC background.
* Sticky words from Kelsey O'Mullane.
* "Handwriting" text stamp by Rachel Greig Photography.
* Buttons, Kaisercraft pearls, black ink, distress inks, black pen, double sided foam mounting tape, and letter stickers.
Entries need to be emailed to my by midnight 30th September for your chance to win one of 6 fabulous prizes from our sponsors. (To be revealed this afternoon). Entry details in the sidebar.
Really looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with for this challenge! Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think of this month's challenge (and samples! LOL!).
There will be lots of activity on the blog this month, including our first ever ATC swap, so stay tuned for details - it's going to be great!
What are you waiting for? Go and get inky!
