Father's Day is this Sunday and I made this card to honor an awesome Dad in our family.
These are the materials I used to make this card:
The base is a blank 5" by 7" kraft greeting card.
I used a piece of cardstock from the Tim Holtz "Crowded Attic" Idea-ology Paper Stash Pad. This paper is a reproduction of an antique French catalog page. I used a paper punch to make the lower edge look like it was removed from a spiral notebook.
I used the digital stamp "Love You Daddy" from Mo's Digital Pencil. I printed the image on white cardstock and colored it with Copic sketch markers. I cut/embossed the image with a Spellbinders die.
I used letter stickers from my stash to write the word "Daddy" across the top of the card. I put a small brad (brushed gold finish) at the top of each sticker.
I finished the card by tying a piece of variegated seam binding on the side of the card.
I am entering this card in "Mo's Challenge #264 - Anything Goes".

I made this Fathers Day card with a rubber stamp and paper piecing.
These are the supplies I used:
Blank 5" by 7" kraft cardstock card
Blonde wood grain patterned paper
Green patterned paper (My Mind's Eye Paper Pad).
A vintage Scafa-Tornabene litho print (1982)
"Dad's Truck" rubber stamp (PrintWorks Collection)
Aluminum foil
Red Stickles glitter glue
A barbeque grill sticker (Jolees)
Tim Holtz sentiment ("Small Talk")
This is how I made the card:
I attached the wood-grain patterned paper to the blank kraft card. I rounded the corners with a corner rounder.
I took the rubber stamp "Dad's Truck" and used a VersaMark Watermark stamp pad to stamp the truck image on a piece of wood-grain paper two times. The first time I stamped with the wood-grain vertical and the second time I stamped with the wood-grain horizontal.
I heat embossed both images with black embossing powder. I cut out the truck and cut out the window. I glued a piece of cellophane behind the window to look like glass.
I used light-weight foil to cover the bumper and the side mirrors of the truck.
I used red Stickles glitter glue for the tail lights.
I cut the tailgate out from the second image that I heat embossed (the wood-grain is horizontal). I used glue dots along the bottom edge to attach it to the truck and then foam squares at the top to make it look three-dimensional.
I put a barbeque pit sticker in the back of the truck.
I mounted the truck on the litho print that features a pretty country scene. I framed the print with the green print paper from My Mind's Eye and attached it to the card.
I chose the sentiment "hold tight, and pretend it's a plan" .

Happy Fathers Day!
I hope you are all having a blessed day. It is a beautiful Sunday afternoon in SE Texas. I think it is perfect weather for outdoor activities and family fun.
I made this Fathers Day card for my husband. He is a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. He is also an avid golfer and loves to get out on the golf course.
I am entering this card in Mo's Challenge #139 - "At the Park w/Mo Image". This is how I made the card;
(1.) I started with an Avery blank white textured greeting card that measures 5 1/2" by 8 1/2".
(2.) The background cardstock is from Recollections "Stitch in Time" Paper Pad. This is a lovely park-like scene that combines the beauty of nature and hand stitching.
(3.) I used the digital stamp "Big Guy Golfing" from Mo's Digital Pencil Shop. I colored the image with Copic sketch markers. I cut it out and attached it to the background cardstock.
(4.) I used the Cuttlebug Embossed Tags embossing folder to make the tag from kraft cardstock. I used a rubber stamp for the sentiment. I embellished the top of the tag with a small button sticker.
(5.) I stamped and punched the butterflies from kraft cardstock with a Martha Stewart punch.
