I named myself The Crafting Professor, since I'm a crafter, and I'm a college professor. I went through many, many years of graduate school, and the best source of relaxation and stress relief was being in my craft room or going to a local crop. Back then, I never told anyone that I was a full-time graduate student. I was waiting for the day I would scrapbook my graduation page. Now, I run the ScrapbookerPhD challenge blog (http://scrapbookerphd.blogspot.com), and am bringing my passion for crafting and teaching together. But here, at The Crafting Professor, I'm just sharing my work with like-minded crafters from all over the world.

Father's Day

Greeting Crafter's
Here is my blog hop post for CardzTV today.


I wanted to try to come up with something really different for my Father's Day card... I have done mustaches, ties, tools, and more. I found this adorable lizard by CC Designs, and I knew I wanted to use it. I used my Copic markers to color it in. 

 B000, B00, B02, B04
YG05, YG17, YG99
E23, E25, E29

I cut the lizard using the Spellbinders die cut Nestabilities Labels 23.
I used two Cardz TV stamp sets for the two sentiments: Heavenly and Happy Days. 
I added the Spellbinders die cuts Shapeabilities Foliage to the bottom left corner, and finally, a button that is decorated like a tortoise shell. 

 The plaid paper is from DCWV, The Boyhood Stack.
