For the Special Guy :)



Hi there!  I hope your week is off to a good start :)   We have 2 of the kids at VBS this week and the other 2 are at 3 weeks of musical theater camp all day so for the next 3 weeks it zoom zoom all around town, all the while trying not to cough up a lung :)  

This bi-weekly challenge at Riley and Company is brought to us by Jovita who asked us to make a card for the special guy/Father.  My sweet father has left this earth to be with our blessed Savior and I await our great meeting again one day - hopefully many, many years from now :)  And I already made my honey his Father's Day card so I thought I'd make another one 'just for pun' :)  He takes our lil man fishing from time to time which is a joy like none other for him so I chose Fishing Riley.   This has always been one of my fave Rileys to use for the guys!  I love his old fishing hat, how relaxed he is hoping to catch something other than an old boot ;)   Remember to load your cards to the gallery using the keyword Riley1212 and you can link them to the challenge blog  ~ we'd love to see what you create!




Thanks for stopping by today ~ have a fantastic rest of today!
Big hugs,

Bigger Blessings!

~Kelly
