Happy Father's Day

Good morning crafters!

How are you all today?  Most of you will know that it is Father's Day today and have probably entered a few of the many masculine themed challenges on the blogs this week.  Anyway, i thought i would share the card that i made for my special Dad.  It is actually his card and present! I made up a voucher and attached it to one of the middle panels.  The easiest present to post!   I will not be with him when he opens it unfortunately as i live thousands of miles away so i hope he will like it.

Good Morning everyone,  hope you are all having a good day. Yes, it is the weekend here in Dubai so that only means two things..... 1. even more crafting and 2. dragging hubby out somewhere (probably shops!).  Well, like it or not, Valentine's Day is around the corner (and along with it comes our 10th Wedding  Anniversary inshAllah!) so my card for this morning fits in with this theme.
