Father’s Day is Sunday, June 19th, so if you haven’t already made a Father’s Day card maybe this Layered Letters Father’s Day Card with a bowtie will provide some inspiration to you. It’s very easy to make and you can customize it to your father or husband. It doesn’t even have to be just for Father’s Day. We are always looking for good masculine card ideas and you could customize this card to any special occasion for a man.
To make the bowtie, I checked the Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Series Paper and found that this black and white pattern would be perfect for a bowtie! You can cut two triangles and a circle any way you like, but I happened to think of the triangle in the Pyramid Pals Thinlits Dies and used that to cut two triangles. Then I used the 1″ Circle Punch for the bowtie knot.
For the greeting, I could have used the Father’s Day stamp in the Crazy about You Stamp Set, but I opted to use the Layered Letters Stamp Set. This is another stamp set that I just find to be fun and useful. After stamping the rectangles with Crumb Cake ink on the Whisper White card front and getting some ink smudges in the corner (ugh!) I just cut out the rectangles instead and adhered them to the card! Another proof there are no mistakes in stamping! (usually!) Simple card to make, I think, and you can change the colors and the greeting style any way you like.
The card base is Basic Black with a Crumb Cake layer. The letters are stamped with Basic Black Archival Ink.
Get started on the Father’s Day card or cards you need to make for the special men in your life! I hope this Layered Letters Father’s Day Card with a bowtie will give you some ideas!
