Welcome to Glenda's Cards!
Today's post features a Father's Day card. Recently I made cards for the oldest and youngest mothers at my church, so I am making cards for the dads. Card is 4 1/4" wide x 5 1/2" high. I used Recollections cardstock and patterned paper. I think the anchor is a good choice for a masculine card. While working on this card, I was inspired by the hymn "In Times Like These". We all need to be sure our anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
Cricut Cartridges:
Creative Holiday Cards - Anchor Card is cut 8.5" wide x 5.5" high from white cardstock.
Anna's Flourish Cards & Embelishments - Perfect Day Sentiment is written on the front of card using the Cricut midnight pen. I cut a 3 3/4" x 3 7/8" piece of the patterned paper for the background of the card. The red circle mat is pop-dotted on the card.
Father's Day Fan Club - Happy Father's Day is cut 3.353" wide x 1.718" high. This is placed inside the card.
Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder is used on the red circle mat for more dimension.
