Hello folks.... I'm back with another 'catch up' instalment of cards and today is all about
the men! As I make cards to sell in a local shop, I always create a few extra Father's Day cards
and, although like a parent you shouldn't have favourites, I'm afraid I did which I'm sharing here..
If you visit often you'll know I can't resist a pun so this Lawn Fawn sentiment paired well
with an older Paper smooches stamp but I have to say I really love those paint
swish dies in shades of blue as a backdrop the most :)
Another fun card that's text based (pun intended) ... love the bold graphic style
all finished off with that cute phone die cut :)
Dad's and beers equals cheers, love this new stamp and die set from Waffleflower..
that's quite a head on that beer too... is that a good thing??
Now this was the actual card I sent to my dear Dad, the stamped image does take quite a few years off him but he knew it was meant to be him!! During lockdown he had to get to grips with
Zoom and Skype... he managed okay with a lot of help but it's much better to be
able to see him in person again now!
Not forgetting those dad's that are the Hero's without capes....although I don't actually
agree with the killing of spiders.... rather they be caught and liberated elsewhere!!
This is a riot of colour... a nod to Pop Art using a VW Beetle from a
Christmas die set finished off with a pun.
Only one card actually mentions Father's Day I hear you say!... that way they can be
used all year round... clever eh? đŸ˜‰
Thanks for stopping by

Where do I start Jenny, these are all amazing and sooo much fun.... and masculine cards too, tick, tick and tick! Thanks for the inspiration I need some more 'Cards 4 Men'!
ReplyDeleteJust an amazing set of cards Jenny.
ReplyDeleteTake care

Jenny, I'm unable to pick just one card as my favorite. I love all of your fabulous cards for dads! Great inspiration as, for me, masculine cards are soooo hard to make.
ReplyDeleteJenny, these are all AMAZING! I confess though that the first is my fave. I LOVE how you used the paint swish dies to create the sea and sky and the birds and red stripes are such perfect little details. So awesome!
ReplyDeleteHow care card sales going for you? I've moved mine from the animal hospital to one of the bookshops in town and they're doing well so far!
Good gracious Jenny, this is a complete gallery of dad cards - everyone else can go home! I have been staring at them all for quite a while now and can't pick a favourite. I am drawn to the first with the boat (I've been looking for a sailing boat stamp and this looks great) and that fab background but all the others are superb too and all with your trademark attention to detail.
ReplyDeleteSo pleased you and your dad have been able to get together again. Vicky x
