It is always easy for me to choose my favorite for the Dirty Dozen. Here is my "baby" Jason, kissing his first child, Jonathan- one of my favorite photos. Sunday will be Jason's first Father's Day and I am so proud of the strong, yet tender dad he is to Jon.
I used ODBD's Father's Day set, and also the new Spellbinder's to frame this treasured photo, and also incorporated Teresa Kline's beautiful sketch. The patterned bg paper has script that looks like cross stitching, and I used a zig zag stitch around the edges.
Hope you are able to join the Dozen this month and use this wonderful sketch!
Thanks for looking!

Ahhh, so sweet, Pat. I was just asking about little Jon in another post. This photograph really captures a special time and I know your son will know the love that went into this.

Oh Pat what a precious precious card. The photo says more than words can ever express. This is a beautiful card. I love the floating hearts, the stitching, the beautiful bow. This is such a treasure. Your son will love it and so will little Jon when he gets bigger. Just a beautiful creation you've made.

Okay Pat - you've outdone yourself on this one. Not only is it an amazing yet simple design, it's one of the most touching Father's Day cards I think I've ever seen - I can feel the love all the way from Virginia! That photo truly says it all - and so much more. Amazing and beautiful.
