My Weekly Sweet Sketch Wednesday Post

Hi everyone out there in Blog Land. It's time again for my weekly Sweet Sketch Wednesday post.  I made this card for my dad for his birthday which is in June. I love getting birthday cards done early!  (I made his father's day card this week too) When I first saw this Wild Rose Studio Image I HAD to have it. It looks just like my dad. He constantly has his nose in a book, cup of tea in his hand,  occasionally there is a cat on his lap, he wears glasses when he reads and the top of his head is bald!
