A Proper Gentleman for Father's Day

I've been making Father's Day cards and wanted to try out some Graphic 45 papers I've had around for a couple of months now. I love the old cars in this collection of papers. It's so vintage in a masculine way!

 Here's the first card I made:

And here's the inside:


Here's the second card I made:

And the inside of this one:


I so enjoyed working with these papers, that I made a third card as well:


I used two different heights on the card:


And here's the inside of that one:


Here's the three of them together--believe it or not, I think this was the only bit of space I had left on my table at the time!



Father's Day is going to be here soon. I hope these cards provide a little inspiration.

I can't believe how quickly this year is flying past--we're half way through the year already!! Before we know it, it'll be Christmas! Which reminds me...I need to start on some Christmas cards soon. :)

Have a wonderful day!
