So yesterday was Father's Day and last month I have made the moms in our small congregation a card for Mother's Day, so this time I did one for the Dads. Of course I had the perfect die set to make the cards with. Who needs an excuse anyway to play with the Spellbinders Truckin' through the Seasons die set.
I measured the cutout from the tailgate panel and created textboxes in MS Word just a little bigger and added the tailgate sentiment. Once printed, I cut them out with the tailgate die and added them to the truck.
I completed the card with a yellow sun in the sky cut from yellow cardstock and with Happy Father's Day printed on it.
The cards were well received and I enjoyed making them. This truck die is so versatile - I love it. This is one of those few no coloring cards you find here on my blog.
