THIS IS A GREAT CARD FOR A GUY NO MATTER THE OCCASION

With Father's Day coming in June I wanted to give my card class some fun cards they could use for that occasion or just for guys in general. I think most of us find cards for the guys in our lives are more difficult to create. I had so much fun creating for this class!

This Easel card was created with the Geared Up Garage Bundle on page 43 of the 2019 Occasions Catalog. If you need a catalog please email me and I will get one out to you right away or you can view it online. I will probably use this bundle again with the June calendar page. It is such a fun bundle to work with.

If you love interactive cards, you're going to enjoy this elegant Peek-A-Boo Slider Card! At first glance, the rich botanical pattern from the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper takes center stage with its deep greens, delicate ferns, and warm golden blossoms. But with one simple pull, a hidden surprise is revealed, making this card as fun to open as it is beautiful to display. For this design, I paired the gorgeous Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper with Mossy Meadow and Golden Glow cardstock to bring out the rich colors in the paper. The layered circular slider creates the perfect focal point, revealing the "Thinking of You" at first glance

This beautiful birthday card combines soft, feminine colors with a wonderful fun-fold design. The textured Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper creates the perfect backdrop for the layered die-cut flowers and rich green leaves. A coordinating belly band wraps around the front panel and features a large “Happy Birthday” greeting framed with a Peaceful Pine stitched oval. Scalloped Petal Pink ribbon, a delicate flower, and coordinating embellishments add the perfect finishing touches. This lovely card is sure to make any birthday feel extra special!

This warm and cheerful birthday card features the beautiful Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper layered on a Cajun Craze card base. The detailed flowers and leaves, cut with the Radiant Sunflowers Bundle, are arranged on a Cajun Craze stitched circle and framed by a large circular opening for added depth and dimension. Very Vanilla cardstock softens the rich color palette, while a delicate Baker's Twine bow and coordinating embellishments provide the finishing touches. The “Happiest Birthday Wishes!” greeting makes this card perfect for celebrating someone special!

There’s something about sunflowers and warm fall colors that makes a card feel extra cheerful! I love how this fun fold design creates several different areas to showcase the beautiful Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper while still keeping those sweet sunflowers front and center. The rich Early Espresso card base pairs beautifully with the Cajun Craze and floral patterns, while the Cajun Craze vases and green leaves add just the right pop of color. The two die-cut sunflowers really bring the card to life, and the simple “Hello, Friend” greeting makes this a wonderful card to send for almost any occasion. A few little embellishments from the 2026-28 In Color Gems scattered around the card add just a touch of sparkle without taking away from all those gorgeous fall colors. This is one of those cards that looks impressive when it’s standing up, but is much easier to create than you might think!
