Dad's Day Card with Quick Quotes

Hello and Welcome!

With Father's Day coming this Sunday, I thought I'd share the card I made for my husband. It features Quick Quotes' FAR and AWAY collection and partial die cutting technique.

 

Here is the step-by-step:
  • Start with a 3 x 4.5 inch FAR and AWAY 105 (navy). Washi tape die cut letters near the top. 
 

  • Place a cutting plate on top of letters, leaving the bottom edge of the letters showing. 
 

  • Use a craft knife to cut between the letter and edge with Royal Blue PowderPuff Chalking Ink.
 

  • Adhere Dad panel to a 4.25 x 4.25 inch FAR and AWAY 101 (red). Edge with Kokomo PowderPuff Chalking Ink.
  • Add  0.25 x 4.25 inch strip of stripes from FAR and AWAY 105. Edge with Kokomo PowderPuff Chalking Ink.
  • Wrap silver thread around the card.
  • Adhere to 4.25 x 5.5 inch of AWAY 102 (blue wave). Add to card base. Edge with Kokomo PowderPuff Chalking Ink.
  • Add Earth Wind Fire chipboard quote and tie on charm. 
 

I really like how you can customize your cards using this partial die cutting technique. Instead of DAD you could use someone's name or cut the word HAPPY and make card for a variety of occasions.
