FATHER'S DAY INSPIRATION BOARDS:

Hello there! I have some fun Father's Day projects to share today. We have several Suites & bundles which make it really easy to create some amazing projects for the special men in your life!

The True Gentleman Suite features the Truly Tailored stamp set and coordinating Tailored Tag Punch, which you can buy as a bundle and save 10%!

We also have the Bubble Over Bundle which features the Bottles & Bubbles stamp set & coordinating Bottles & Bubbles Framelits, again saving you 10% if you buy them together.

And finally there's the Apron of Love Bundle. It features the Apron of Love stamp set and coordinating Apron Builder Framelits. You save 10% on this bundle as well.

This card was made with the Truly Tailored stamp set and Bow Builder Punch. Unfortunately they are both retiring, but there's still time to get them before they're gone for good! The punch works perfectly with this suite for creating the adorable bow tie. Make sure to attend Coffee Break on Saturday morning and be able to make some of these for the special guys in your life!

I made this cute little favor with an empty embellishments container. I added a Night of Navy circle and punched a piece of True Gentleman DSP with the Starburst Punch. I layered them and attached them to the lid with Glue Dots.

I took a piece of Burlap Ribbon, looped the ends and staples them. I attached it to the DSP with Tear & Tape. I stamped the sentiment with Night of Navy ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock and punched it out with the Tailored Tag Punch. I then attached the tag to the burlap with stacked Dimensionals. I tucked a piece of folded Crushed Curry Mini Chevron Ribbon underneath with Mini Dimensionals.

You could fill the container with cash or a small treat for a beautifully coordinated gift & card. Unfortunately the True Gentleman DSP is gone, but you could use the coordinating True Gentleman Cardstock Pack and stamp on it to make your own DSP.

Here's a super quick & simple idea for a 3" x 3" card.

You could use the card as is or punch a hole in the corner and attach it to a gift bag handle with baker's twine. Or even better, to a 6-pack of Rolling Rock, as the colors coordinate perfectly:)

And speaking of beer...the Bubble Over Bundle works perfectly to accompany his favorite beer or pop! You can customize the bottle in the colors of their favorite drink:)

Here's a card we made during Sale-A-Bration. The DSP is retired, but you could easily substitute another design.


Here's another fun idea:)

Another idea using a Window Sheet for the card base!

Again, just substitute the DSP for something you already have.

This card was made with the Apron of Love Bundle. I used Basic Black Cardstock and cut the apron out with the Apron Builder Framelits. I made the red gingham by stamping the Diagonal Background Stamp with Real Red ink onto Whisper White Cardstock, rotating the cardstock the second time to create the checkered design.

We made this fun Card in a Box at TNT! a couple of months ago and would work great for Father's Day!

The Picnic Basket Builder Framelits worked perfectly for the flames. They are retiring at the end of May as well, so you better get them while you can if you want to make this fun design.

Maybe your guy needs a new grill and you were thinking of getting him one for Father's Day. You could tuck a Lowe's gift card inside and give him a perfectly coordinated gift!

This was a hard post to write today. It will be the first Father's Day without my dad. He truly was the King of the Grill and when I first saw the Apron of Love Bundle in the Occasions Catalog, I had planned on making something like this for him. He needed a new grill too so I was going to see if my brothers & sisters would want to go in on one for him. He would have really gotten a kick out of this:) I'm so thankful that I still have many amazing men in my life to celebrate:)

If you're wanting to make any of these projects I shared today, you'll want to order these products soon! The Tailored Tag Punch will carry over, but everything else in the True Gentleman Suite will be retiring at the end of the month, except for the True Gentleman Buttons. Thankfully the Bubble Over and Apron of Love Bundles will be carrying over, but the stamp sets and framelits will be priced separately, so if you want to save 10%, you'll need to order them by May 31st! Thanks so much for stopping by today:)
