I created a fun Dad’s Day Layout to go along with my last design team project which was a Mom’s Day Layout. Make sure you snap lots of photos of Dad and the kids this Father’s Day and capture the memories. Swap out the title to create a layout for any occasion.

Instructions
- Start with a solid 12” x 12” card stock paper for your base. I distressed the edges with a sanding block.
- Cut another sheet of patterned paper 11.5” x 11.5”, ink the edges and layer on top of base sheet.
- Cut brackets. I distressed the edges of the bottom bracket and added some stitching with a white pen. Ink the top bracket and add both brackets to the layout. I offset to the right edge.
- Cut the frame. I distressed the edges. Add some foam tape before applying to the layout. It takes some time to do this but will be so worth it. The dimension really adds interest.
- Print and apply photos to the layout.
- Cut and assemble title and ties. Add ink to the ties and add foam tape before applying to the layout.
- Cut and assemble the Heart Graphic, add some twine and foam tape. Apply to the layout.
- Cut the You Rock title & shadow, add foam tape and apply. Cut journal tag and add journaling with a white pen. Apply to the layout and you are done!
Design Tips
- For easy matching use patterned papers from one collection. I used My Mind’s Eye – Boy Crazy Collection. Pick your solids to match the patterned paper.
- I used several elements from 3D and card kits – scope out each and every kit once it releases for possible scrapbook layout elements. That’s what I do! 🙂
- Stitch with a white pen or get out your sewing machine. When using your machine just make sure you don’t stitch through adhesive.
Happy Scrapping!
