    Smile We began putting together a Father's Day card for DH

    My ds and I began putting together a Father's Day card for Dh today. It is nearly done, I have some embellishing to do yet (maybe). Perhaps chalking some edges or something on the front still. I did the cutting. DS picked out the shaker box (i bought it premade) I mounted it on the grey and then to the green. Then on the inside i wrote the greeting and then let him draw . He had me help him with his name. Hannah i just had her sign with her thumb prints. LOL and she printed a few times. then I mounted the greeting block into the card. Was fun and the kids "had a hand in it" too.

    I am posting the outside of the card, and then the inside.

    That is so cute! I love the thumb prints too.

    It looks like it's made of suede in the pic.

    It really is very lovely - Well done to all of you.

    That card is a keeper!!!! Years from now, when your kids are all grown up, you and your DH will pull this out of your "treasure box" and remember your darling little ones.
