Two for the Boys

Mornin' y'all!  I feel like I've been having a Very Productive Week in the craft room and it's making me happy : )  I have lots of challenges to enter this week so I've got a two-card post coming at you right now.

First up is a card for the hubs:

He's a pilot and I can't believe I haven't used Adventurous Sky more since I got it last year.  It's a perfect stamp set for the Paper Players challenge:

I paired that with the sketch from AAA Cards:

While I was perusing stamp sets for my first card, I had another idea and just had to make it too:

Here's one for my duck-loving child!  And I think this is the first time I've stamped any of the ducks from Charming Duck Pond, gasp!  I stamped the greeting in Lemon Lolly bit it didn't show up super well, so I stamped over it slightly offset in Copper Clay (and it's slightly crooked because that's how you know it's handmade).  I had to stamp my duck family in the colors from Creative Colour Challenges:

I used Early Espresso for the outline stamps; Mama Duck is filled in with Pecan Pie and the babies are Copper Clay.  Then Mama's beak and feets are colored with the darker Lemon Lolly Blend and the babies' with the lighter one, though it didn't show up well in the photo.  I lightly sponged some Pecan Pie ink along the bottom of the Very Vanilla panel to give the ducks something to walk on.

I'm not going to say for sure that that's it for me today, peeps.  I've got quite a few cards to share and I might double up blog posts...we'll see!  Cheers!
