Dads!

Well the next lot of cards were made with Fathers Day in mind. I have got both Dads to make cards for and one for my little boy to give to his Daddy, plus both of our Dad's Birthdays are coming up too! Its a busy time of year for me! I was browsing the Docrafts site the other day and saw the idea of the Tag Card and thought I'd have a go.

The papers on this card are a kit from Shabby Princess called Blueberry Cobbler.

I thought I'd try out a different colour scheme on this one and have used the Modish Girl range again from Shabby Princess.

I've been thinking about having a go at this card for some time now as I bought the dies to cut out the tools ages ago and I think I've only made one or two cards with them. I drew the template for the apron myself and inked the edges to give it a dirty look. I've inked some chipboard letters to co-ordinate and attached them to the pocket, which has been stuck down with foam pads. I think the brown and striped papers are from a Making Memories kit I bought in America last year. The tape measure is part of a scrapbook page I also got in America.

Welly wanger! I thought this one would be a bit of fun. One of the Docrafts ladies very kindly sent me a template for the welly boot some time ago but this is the first time I've ever used it. I might use these cards for my little boy to give to his Grandad's.
