Father's Day

I created this simple Father's Day card for my grandson to give to his Dad. I used a Silhouette SD electronic cutter to cut the frame and all the letters. The current challenge over at Created by Hand is Father's Day; at Crazy Amigo it's transportation; at Timeless Tuesday, it's using designer papers. This card uses a train stamp from Rubber Cottage and a sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design, paired with papers from Daisy D's and Basic Grey. "You're the best" is something the boys say often to their parents, so I know my son-in-law will chuckle when he sees this. The family recently enjoyed a day at a train museum in Ottawa, and sent me some wonderful photos of their fun; hopefully this card will bring some happy memories.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by!

Beautiful card for your grandson to give to his dad. How sweet of you to think of a personal saying to put on it for him.
