Dear Old Dad with Becky Fleck!

Happy Father’s Day to all of the wonderful dads and special men in our lives! My Father’s Day will be spent celebrating with my husband and our furry kids Libby and Cooper, and as dads go, he’s an awesome dog dad!

Whether the man you celebrate is your dad, the father of your children, or just a really special guy in your life, here are some cards you can create to show him how much he is loved and appreciated!

My first card is a tone-on-tone kraft card of die cut bow ties. At the bottom, I back-filled one of the bow ties with patterned paper. This is a super simple card to create and makes a fantastic, graphic statement. This card is a great way to use up those scraps of pop dot negatives you’ve been hoarding!

 

Supplies: cardstock (Stampin’ Up!); patterned paper (Fancy Pants); dies (PageMaps for Spellbinders); adhesive (American Crafts, Xyron)

I made this second card with a stamp and die cut set from My Favorite Things. I love it when stamps have matching dies, as it makes quick work of the whole design! This old vintage typewriter design was perfect for a masculine card.

 

Supplies: cardstock (Bazzill Basics); patterned paper (BasicGrey); dies and stamps (My Favorite Things, Paperytrey); ink (Close To My Heart); adhesive (American Crafts, Xyron)

This final card is another die cut quickie, where I die cut several neck ties out of the same patterned paper, then cut one from a different piece. I elevated it on some scrap chipboard and added a sentiment.

 

Supplies: cardstock (Bazzill Basics); patterned paper (BasicGrey, American Crafts, Echo Park, My Mind’s Eye); dies (PageMaps for Spellbinders); adhesive (American Crafts, Xyron)

All three cards are very easy to recreate (or modify!)and  I’m sure that special guy in your life will love to receive one!

I created the bow tie and neck tie cards using the “Dear Old Dad” die cuts by PageMaps for Spellbinders. For your chance to win a set of these dies, post a comment here and share your favourite thing about your dad or that special man in your life!

Have a great day, everyone!
