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 evening all!

I hope you have had a great day. I have been working on a few DT projects lately so my posts are few and far between but i do have a little inspiration for you tonight.

  I actually left this card blank simply because i couldn't decide what i wanted to put on it! Now, it can be used for a birthday, thank you, just because, thinking of you, anything! The papers are from We R Memory Keepers Cotton Tail paper pack and Me to You Spring Chic paper pack. The little ribbon sticker is by Kioshi. I made the flower using part of a Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die, some punched scalloped circles, and a button. The heart border is an EK Success border punch. The edges of the flower and leaves were distressed with walnut stain distress ink. The leaves were made using a Hero Arts flower stamp set.
