Good morning, and welcome to the Creations by AR "Celebrating Fathers" Blog Hop.
Thanks for hopping along with us.
Adela has chosen to dedicate today's hop to her father, who passed away on May 12th.
Hop along to see what our DT has created with Adela's new templates!
Don't forget there will be prizes - all you have to to to qualify to win one of our templates is to leave a comment at each blog you visit! Winners will be announced on Saturday, May 26th, by each designer.
My first project today features the Comfy Sofa Gift Box. This template will make a single 'recliner' chair, a love seat, or a full sofa. I chose to make a recliner chair. Here is the recliner closed.
The remote control, wall photo, and coffee mug were computer generated.
Here is the recliner 'reclined'.
Now, if your special man pulls the 'recliner' bottom all the way out, he can open it up to find
a yummy treat, gift card, coupon, photo, etc....the possibilities are endless!

Next, is a wonderful box, called "Papa's Trunk". One of Adela's dads' most treasured possessions was his Army trunk. In it, he kept his Army uniform, awards, wartime medals (including the Purple Heart), his Bible, and several other priceless items. Sadly, Adela's dad passed away on May 12th.
This template, "Papa's Trunk", was inspired by his trunk.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have enjoyed my projects, and are ready to see what my talented teamies have created! Check back on Saturday to see if you have one one of these templates!
Have a great day!
Hugs and smiles,
Patti J.

Oh my Patti! Your recliner is awesome! I love the little details you added as well. Toooo cute!
The trunk is adorable. I like the lock on it.
This hope a lovely tribute to Adela's father! Thanks for sharing. :)
I love that you added "scenery" to the chair - great idea! I can imagine an oval scallop run through an embossing folder for some texture to the rug...thinking...thinking...so many possibilities!
I love the square brads that you used for the trunk - adds so much character!
Super projects, I especially love your retro armchair filled with chocolate!
Lovely chair with the coffie and remote. Like your simple trunkt to. Thank you for sharing. <3 Anna Müller
This is great I love the nuggets hiding in the compartment.Nice Job
El Baul me encanta es fantastico pero ese sofa lo amo

Oh wow - what a great job you did with both of these projects - love all the goodies with the chair and the trunk has a "special" meaning I know - love both of the projects and I saw the afghan you made - great idea!!
now that takes the cake!!!! Fantastic!!! You are so clever
Both look fantastic!
These are both great. I love the chocolate chair!
Super projects! I love the way you've created a little living room scene for your chair. And the trunk is fabulous - especially with those brads!
I have to order this for sure - this turned out so fabulous - I'm going to put a gift card in mine - I really, really love it Patti.

Enhorabuena, Patti, los dos trabajos son increibles, la caja de los recuerdos, por su simbolismo me parece un detalle realmente entrañable que AR creo, pero es que el sofá me tiene loca viendo todas vuestras versiones, precioso.
Besitos.
Patti - Love the chair...reminds me of something grandma would have covered. The candy in the ottoman is perfect! The trunk is is so much fun isn't it?
That chair is wonderful. Like the papers you used.
It wouldn't be "Dad's chair" without the remote -- very cute!
What wonderful creations! What man doesn't love his recliner--with a treat inside to boot. :)
patti, wanna say your sofa w/ the coffee was so cute but most of all the way you stacked the chocolates inside the box and the papa trunk liked the way the hinges looked so real.
Patti the sofa was really stacked well w/ all the chocolates and loved the coffee on the arm rest and as for the papa trunk the hinges looked so real .
Hello!
Great projects - great colors! I love these templates! Wishing you a sunshine day!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane

I love the details in your sofa.. those are adorables.. and the way you take the picture is a great idea!!!! I love the frame in the wall.. thanks for sharing!
Patti: The chair reminds me of sitting on my grandma's front porch in the summer. It was hot then but when you're young, who notices? Job well done.
Awesome projects Patti! Love the recliner...great idea to have a little hidden box underneath! And the trunk is great too! I might have to make that one into a tooth fairy box! TFS!
Oh my gosh! I absolutely love this. I can also picture a lovely mothers day chair with a flowered throw. Thanks so much for sharing.

This chair looks like something you see on a fancy deck to sun yourself in! Design Paper makes all the difference! Fantastic
