Happy Father's Day- One more time


Brandy made this belated Father's Day card and I've been remiss in posting it to the blog.  The man card... one of the toughest cards to make.  It can't be frilly, it can't be cute (or maybe better said, it often can't be cute).  Still, you want to make something nice. 

In this case, Brandy added some interest by creating a stair-step card front.  I'm not sure if she followed someone's instructions but you can find instructions here.  Finishing the card was simply covering the "stair steps" with a piece of grass photo patterned paper.  The 3D golf embellishments came from a store package but add a sense of finished professionalism, don't you think?  The sentiment was printed from the computer on a piece of cardstock and cut to make the flag. 

We'll add this to the man card inspiration file.  Though it's a few month late, you never know when you are going to need some manly card inspiration.

  1. How cool. My dad would love a card like this. If his birthday wasn't last weekend I'd be all over CASEing this one with a birthday sentiment instead. You girls are to amazing. 'Nough said.
