Father's Day Card

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.

Batty for Candy

 Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I am playing along with a few challenges. Card and images are cut using my Cricut Explore and Cricut Design Space. Stripe patterned paper is K&Company Tim Coffey Halloween and Fall 12 x 12 paper pad. I purchased this paper pad several years ago. Solid papers are from the scrap stash.

Cartridges:
Creative Holiday Cards - Scallop Candy Corn Bat card is cut 5.50" wide. Candy corn bat is part of the card's image. Wonder where he found that purple candy corn!
Note: The scallop envelope image is shown with the bat card in the image view, but it does not load with the images to cut in Design Space. After locating the envelope image on the cartridge, I cut it at 9.84" wide x 6.83" high. This size works well for the card.
Create a Critter 2 - Happy Halloween is cut 3" wide.
Teresa Collins Chic and Scary - Spiderweb is cut 1.50" wide.
Bat is cut 2.50" wide -this is used inside the card.

 Inside card.

Treat or Treat - Candy image is cut 4.50" wide.
A Frightful Affair - Using the add text feature, I cut Batty For at 1.77" wide, 1.64" high.

 Card with Envelope

Holiday Cakes - Bat used on the envelope is cut 2.50" wide. I used the bat image for the envelope closure by adding two pop dots.

I added a little doodling with the Gelly Roll pen on the bats and the words. I did not add doodling on the envelope bat. I may do that before the card is handed out. Or Maybe Not!!
