Happy Father's Day

Hello and welcome back to another Flourishes Timeless Tuesday.  This week I am the challenge hostess and I am asking that you make a Father's Day themed card or project.  If you are not aware it falls on June 17th this year.  I used the new set released in May called Father's Day and Flourishes Classic White Cardstock.

 I made this for my son to give my husband on Father's Day.  He is always so great about playing ball with him.  The only thing is that my son is so much bigger than the child in this silhouette. He seems to be growing day by day.  I swear he was eye to eye to me this morning when I was telling him to get off the games and get dressed.  I am 5'9" and he is 12 years old, so he is getting pretty tall.  My husband thinks it is funny so I told him to wait until next year when he is taller than he is and he is staring up his nose.




I also played along with the Freshly Made sketch this week.

Here are the links to the rest of the design team for additional inspiration.

  8. Love how you dressed up the sketch. The papers are awesome and I love the brown twine and button. 5'9" is a pretty tall woman! It seems funny when you start looking up to your children. Sigh... not babies anymore.
