Good morning, everyone!
Father’s Day in the United States is in a few weeks (the 21st), so I thought I’d make a Father’s Day card for my dad. This photo card is super simple and can be made in under 10 minutes. It’s the perfect idea for quick cards for grandparents and other relatives, too. :)
The paper I used can be found here. (I also used some of it in last week’s Finally Friday video). And the fabulous I Heart My Dad stamp is here. They have a I Heart My Mom stamp, too! I have that one, but I didn’t have a chance to use it before Mother’s Day. Doesn’t mean I can’t use it all year round, though. :)
Anyhow, enjoy the video and I’ll catch you guys a bit later for the Color Inspiration #53 Round-up!

aww that’s so cute! ;) I love it.
I LOVE this card – so simple so cute! Perfect for Dad!
Love that card. I just cannot ‘quilt’ with paper, it seems to go crooked and the squares do not line up so that by the time I have placed a second row, they are all askew. Is there a trick to placing them so perfectly. You make it look so easy.
Absolutely love this photo card and will scraplift for my hubby’s card this year for sure. One thing I think is an advantage about photo cards is that men tend to keep them since they do contain a special photo.
What a beautiful card! Kristina got me hooked in the card making hobbie thanks to the Finally Friday videos at Two Peas and now I can`t stop, lol!
Thanks for the greart video :)
Beautiful card Kristina!! Thanks so much for the great ideas, I think this is a winner.
God bless

Cute card idea! Love the general idea of a photo card – could see this being used for other things – baby announcements, etc. Thanks for sharing!
This is such a great card! Love it!

I love your Father’s Day card creation. :)
Perfect idea for even a Birthday card too.

your day to share another great video with us.
Love that Kristina! I bet your Dad keeps it :)
Very cute card! I like all the tips in the video. Thanks for sharing.
Love this, the colors are wonderful and love the frame!
The ‘quilt’ look is such a great concept for a card, and so simple, too. Thanks!
Hey Kristina,
What a sweet and personal card. I can see it sitting on your dad’s desk for a long time. What a great idea. TFS!
Love your photo tri-fold card! Your dad will definitely keep this!
Love that card!
YAY!!!! I am going to make a dozen of this design!!! Perfect use for all the SU demos that bought the Designer paper sample ring! I was wondering what I would do with all those 3x squares. THANKS!!!!
Another perfect card. I just received my score pal today so I think it’s time to christen it. :)
What a great picture of you and your dad! Love the card too. I seriously need that chalk ink…great versatility.
What a wonderful idea!
Really love the card!! Simple and to the point. Perfect for fathers! :)
Thanks Kristina! I love the chocolate brown with the white and the great picture of you and your dad. May dad passed away a year ago and I miss him very much. Enjoy every minute you have with him.
Perfect card for father’s day. My husband (who is also a father) was walking by the computer as I was watching your video and immediately said “nice card” – he never says that! LOL
AWESOME!!!!!! thanks for the idea.. I was thinking about making some “quilting card” and you made me say YES!!! hihihihih, greetings from mexico ;)
What a great card! It’s awesome because your Dad can frame it!
This is a neat card. love the brown paper.
Adorable card, Kristina…your dad will cherish it I’m sure :)
This is a fun card. I am bummed that you have stopped using mainly SU! stuff since that’s why I first followed you. Although I understand why.
Wow, so easy and so perfect! Gotta make a card, too.
Greetings from Germany,

What a fantastic card! I think I know what to do now for my honey for Father’s Day! Thanks Kristina!
Hi! I “accidentally” came over your videos on YouTube today and I am so inspired. I really like the way you’re filming – it really shows how you do things and your comments are nice too. Thank you for filling my Sunday afternoon with a lot of tips, beautiful cards and teaching me new techniques.
I’ll have to get my stash out now, just can’t resist!!
