Instructions

1. 1. The first thing I did was stamp the front sentiment and the man image on the scrap of Whisper White Cardstock.
   2. Stamp the inside of the card.
   3. Color the image.
   4. Die cut the image and greeting.
   5. Now it’s time to have fun with the Stamparatus. Place the greeting Relax Your Way! at the top right of the Sahara Sand Cardstock. Make sure the greeting is straight.
   6. Close the Stamparatus to pick up the greeting.
   7. Ink the greeting and stamp.
   8. Move the plate down a notch to ink and stamp again.
   9. Repeat this step until you reach the bottom of the piece of cardstock.
   10. Return the plate to the top, clean the stamp.
   11. Repeat step 5 but place the greeting in the middle of two greetings. Again, make sure the greeting is straight.
       
   12. Close the Stamparatus to pick up the greeting.
   13. Ink the greeting and stamp.
   14. Move the plate down a notch to ink and stamp again. Repeat this step until you reach the bottom of the piece of cardstock
   15. Now it’s time to assemble the card by gluing the layers of the card together and to the front of the card. Don’t forget the inside.
   16. Glue the ribbon to the front of the card towards the bottom.
   17. Use dimensionals on the picture and greeting cutouts and secure to the front of the card over the ribbon.
       

The best thing about this cool Father’s Day card? If you noticed, it doesn’t say Father’s Day on the outside, so it would also be appropriate for a birthday card if you change the inside greeting.

I hope you enjoyed this fun Father’s Day card!
