happy fathers day lighting the way

Happy Father’s Day

Good day everyone – wishing all the Dads out there and remembering Dads who are no longer with us a very Happy Father’s Day. Our Dad is our unsung hero – they light the way to make us true, brave and strong and I thought that Stampin’ Up!’s Lighting the Way encapsulated that so well. […]

Clean and Simple Father’s Day card

Here’s a clean and simple Father’s Day card using the He’s All That stamp set and the new Nested Essentials dies. I also used the Alphabest photopolymer stamps to spell “dad” and punched it out with the Best Label punch. There are dies to coordinate with the He’s All That stamp set, but I didn’t […]

Pebbled Path tackle box with Gone Fishing

Father’s Day Tackle box card

I took my inspiration for a Father’s Day Tackle box card from Stampin’ Up!’s samples in their May 2023 – April 2024 Annual catalogue. Knowing very little about fishing, some of the dies were baffling, but you can be sure that the clues are all in the picture samples in the catalogue. Yesterday, I published […]
