A tribute to dad

Sadly, my dad died towards the end of 2003 (actually on mum's birthday), so I no longer make a father's day card, but this is the card that I would want to give him if it were still possible.

This is one of those cards that almost made itself, because the Paper Cellar background paper and the Anna Griffin decoupaged sticker say it all, so just the addition of the sentiment and some edge distressing with dusty concord.

With this coming Sunday being father's day here in the UK there are obviously a lot of challenges around atm with that theme, so these are includes among those below that I'm linking for:
