We have a Great Doggie GIVEAWY for both our Large Dog and Small Dog Digital Stamp Sets as well as our Puppy Printable 5 Card Set. Just leave a comment here on the Blog and you have until next Monday, June 9 when I will announce the winner.  The Winner  can also pick $25.00 in any product if they prefer.  


Here's our Free Online Gift when you place any order until June 15/14 in our www.craftyvintagegirl.com store. Just add it to your cart ' Best Father Printable - T-23 '. It looks great as an iron on T-shirt transfer.

     This is a layout I made of my dad who passed away in January. I called him Daddy-O, which he seemed to get a kick out if.  This will be our first Fathers Day with out him and we all miss him immensely as my he lived downstairs with my mom for over 25 years. I used paper, designs and a font to journal all from CD 3 Creating With Vintage Typography.


    This is the alphabet page I cropped all the letters from for the title.

    I also added a drop shadow to each of my letters which is easy to do if you go under the Layers Style Tab and then Style Settings. When you hover your mouse over a letter you add you can click 'Send it Backwards' to layer them and tuck parts of a letter behind another. I also tucked most of an envelope I used under the photo to add the name and dates.  



    I added the leaves, so in total I used the background paper, blue paper to mat, alphabet paper, journal card, one of the fonts, a swirly designs and a envelope to add my dad's name.


    I also like using the warp text tool to curve text like the 'Dear Daddy-O' in the top of the journal box or the way the text is waved like a flag and you can control the levels from just a little bit to crazy.



    Our Golf Time Clear Stamp Set has sold out and become a Golf Time Digital Download and we made some changes and improved it.  There is a new crown and heart design added and the images are much larger but re-sizeable. It's a medium set and should be $4.95 but it's on sale until Father's Day for an introductory SALE price of $2.95!  


    Here's the preview sheet with all the sizes and you have to be sure to check our DT Member Elizabeth Lincoln's Golf card she created for our June Challenge.

    Our Favorite Fella Clear Stamp Set (originally $24.95) has been marked down further to just $9.95 for this large CLEAR Stamp Set


      Also - during June all of our Card Stock Stickers are on SALE for just .99 cents  The were originally $2.35 for many years so .99 cents is great as they are die cut so intricately with no white edges. 

     Okay, here is where you can enter our Linky Party and post any sample you have created and receive a $6.00 gift card.  Also, 1 lucky random.org winner will receive a $50.00 Gift Card!





    Lastly, I have to share a photo of our oldest daughter Katie (on the left) who won a Leo Award with 2 co-workers Saturday night for the TV Show she is a writer for The Liquidator. A Leo is like an Oscar for TV in British Columbia Canada and I'm are so freaking proud of her I could burst!

    Don't forget to leave a comment to be entered to WIN our Doggie Gift Package Giveaway with both Big and Little Dog Digital Stamp Sets and our Puppy 5 Card Printables - or pick $25.00 worth of any product if you prefer. 

    Wishing you joy and creativity

    Hi Jennifer, I sent you an email explaining about my email problem and how I accidentally deleted over 600 emails but please re-check you email as I also sent the 2 papers and Take it Easy Stamp set to you but they sat in my 'Outbox' forever and finally went.
    Sorry for the delay

    The father's day layout is wonderful and very touching. Those dog sets are adorable so count me in for your giveaway! Congrats to your daughter on the award - that's awesome! I have watched that show a few times! Don't like the guy's foul mouth but other than that it's a fun show and very fast moving - it's fun to watch them negotiate and haggle. Thanks for another linky and I hope I have time to come back and play along since I missed it last month. Have a great day, Sandy!

    Hi Sandy,
    Congratulations to your daughter.
    I love the layout you did for your Dad. My dad passed away May 3rd...I have known you all these years and who would have thought our Dads would have passed away in the same year.
    Thanks for all you do for us with your beautiful products and website. I always enjoy reading it.

    Congratulations Katie!
    Sorry I missed the June Linky Party. I'll be back in July. In the meantime, I need to pop over and get the digi version of the golf set! I have the clear stamps, but it will be great to be able to resize the images!
