Getting Carded for Fathers Day

Hello there.
I recently had my Fathers Day kids class and it was amazing! Unfortunately I will not be posting the pics until next week, only because the dads haven't seen the cards yet. To come up with the class design, I first spent some time on my favorite app Pinterest of course. Once I found a basic idea that I liked, I visited the site and used the template from Stamp n Design, I adjusted the size of the template and sat with my good friend Jan from 2gurlzllc. to come up with my actual simplified class idea. I really enjoyed creating with her not only because she is really funny but because she is an experienced paper crafter and stamper, which is something that I am now getting into. My final card design is below along with a little something for Grandpa. The funny thing about the class is that some of the girls didn't seem to enjoy the class as much as usual. I did find out why.... they weren't allowed to use pink or anything related to pink lol. I definitely had to remind them that the card was for their Dad and not for themselves. Sounds simple, but when your usual go to is a shade of pink it is a bit difficult. The good news is once they saw the final product they were extremely proud and happy with their projects.  



Did you create something for Father's Day? I'd love to hear about it! Feel like creating a card similar to this one, visit the blog listed above and have some fun.
