Happy Friday, everyone!!!

I made this special card for my Dad last September and totally forgot to post this! My dad loves to play table tennis with his friends, so why not make a card that shapes like one? :)

Cards for Mother's and Father's Day

Enjoy! :)

Happy Mother's and Father's Day!

Daddy's Overalls

I was going to make Martha Stewart's Button-Down Father's Day Card, but I changed my mind because I've made a shirt for my dad last year. I wanted to make something different, so this year I gave him overalls! It's soooo cute! :P My mom and little brother thought it was an apron though :(



There were a few things I would change. I would change the shape to a more square-ish form. Also, I wish I had a different thick ribbon to use because the flowery straps are a bit girly (I need to buy more thick ribbons!). Other than that, I'm quite happy with my dad's overalls and it seems like he likes it too!



I love adding little details to my cards! For this card, I drew tiny stitches onto the pockets to make it look like real stitches. Also, I thought it would be cute and funny to attach one small and one big button on the overalls. Lastly, I rolled up the "I ♥ U" label so it'll stick out. I don't know about you, but majority of my labels on my clothes are either rolled up, folded, or ripped out...I don't like them.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Father's Day! I had sushi with my daddy! :)

Take a look at what I've made for my dad last Father's Day!

Ideas for Father's Day 2010

Father's Day is tomorrow! I have no idea what to make yet so hopefully this post will help me get started...and hopefully give you some ideas.

1. Daddy's Pocket
   
   
   I'm loving cards with pockets! It's great for holding tags and photos! I made one for A's birthday...maybe I'll make one for my dad.
   Visit Free-CardMaking's website to download this project or to browse around.
   


2. Button-Down Father's Day Card
   
   
   I made my dad a fancy jacket suit card last year, so maybe this year I can make him a casual shirt :D The shirt on the right is cute! It has a jacket with lapels and a pocket with a handkerchief.
   Martha Stewart, I love your craft projects!

Check out the ideas that I posted last year post.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day! :)
