My (Ai) Hero! Art Impressions For the Fellas Challenge!

Hello Ai fans!

Today we begin another new challenge over at Art Impressions.  This one is called FOR THE FELLAS.  Father's Day is just around the corner so it's time to honor the men in our lives.

I made a card using several different types of guys because I know so many men are many different things for their families...they grill, they fix things...the kill our bugs!!!

I made a shutter tri-fold card.  This is what it looks like when it's closed.

I used several Ai stamps.

The men are all from the Art Impressions Heroes line.

This one's called BUG BUSTER.

This guy is the WEEKEND WARRIOR.

The dude on the front of the card is called GRILL FATHER.

The Father's Day verse is called FDMD set.

The Thanks for Wearing All the Hats verse is from the OPERATION WRITE HOME series called Every Hat Set.

Will you walk into my parlour?" said the Spider to the Fly

'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy. 

Okay, so I was lying in the bed the other night, wide awake at 12:45 because my husband was snoring and this idea popped into my head.  I had to get out of bed, go into our closet and find a scrap paper and pen and jot it down before I forgot it.  This is what I do in the middle of the night... and you?  It came out pretty much the way I envisioned it.  The Swirley Spider and Web are from SUGAR CREEK HOLLOW and are both from the SPIDER WEB QUILT set.  I know I've used this set before but I keep thinking of cute ways to use this spider!  I mean, not everything has to be dark and spooky for Halloween right?  Although,  I guess it is kind of creepy that she's sneaking over to get the poor little fly.  I really had fun making this one!
