Thank You!
Happy Friday everyone it’s Holly here today. Father’s Day is this weekend and our current Challenge is a Father’s Day theme so I created a Father’s Day card or a Thank you card for that special Father Figure in your life. Masculine cards are always hard for me, so today I kept it clean and simple.
I’m using the two adorable bear sets from Mama Elephant Cub Cuddles and the Coordinating Dies. The sentiment is from Bear Hugs. I trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White to 4 x 5 1/4″ and then I die cut a circle from the front using the Framed Tags: Columbus Circle Creative Cuts from Mama Elephant. Then I stamped the sentiments onto the bottom using some Walnut ink from Lawn Fawn and some VersaFine Black Ink. Then I added some Foam mounting tape to the back side of the panel.
I stamped the bear image from the Cub Cuddles set onto some Neenah Solar White using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and the I colored the image in with Copics… E53, E34, E23 & E27. Then I die cut the image using the matching dies. I created the background for the die cut center of my card panel with some pattern patterns from My Favorite Things. The sky piece is from the Watercolor Wash 6×6 pad and the Grass is from the County Fair Plaid 6×6 pack. I die cut the Green piece with the Landscape Trio die from Mama Elephant to give it a stitched edge. I adhered the papers behind the panel to appear through the circle opening and then I added the panel to the Card front. Once the panel was in place I added some foam tape to the back of the bear image and added that inside the circle.
On the inside of the card I added a sentiment from Cub Cuddles and the paw prints from Bear Hugs. This is a card that can be mass produced or if you have kids they could each make one and change out the bear images in the center. Don’t forget to enter our Father’s Day Challenge.. it’s open until Sunday June 26th.
Thanks for stopping by today, Have a great Weekend!
