Hopefully all of these cards made it to the recipients because I just had to share. I had such a blast making these and I'm really happy with how they turned out.
The first one was an idea I found online on from PabloPanda's Etsy page. I pretty much copied it, but I couldn't help myself I loved it so much!! I printed the sentiment and popped the beard up on some black foam tape.
My next card was for my Father-in-Law. I used an old stamp set from Hero Arts that I thought would fit him perfectly.
Can you see a theme here? I then realized I should probably challenge myself a bit and see if I could come up with something masculine with some bold color. I ink-blended a background and cut out the letters using my Silhouette. The font is Cubano and it is available for purchase online, and I purchased it a long time ago. I realized that it is the exact font used by Simon Says Stamp for their new DAD die, and I thought, hey I can make that with what I already have and I can make it any size I want. So I came up with the following for my Dad.
Since I had the cut out panel from the card above I thought why not make another card so I just did some re-configuring and came up with this one for my Bro:
I have never been able to make this many cards for guys in my life so I was pretty impressed with myself :) Hope you enjoy!
