Father's Day is celebrated around the world -not always at the same time, here in the Southern hemisphere we celebrate in September. I never miss an opportunity to create a card celebrating the dads. I always love texture on a masculine card and it is so easy to add as you will see from my tutorial.
There is something undeniably beautiful about a wedding - friends and family come together to support and celebrate those exchanging vows and becoming one. Make a keepsake for your next wedding event.

I love dandelion's and cant wait for them all to start springing up so I can pick them and make a wish! When I saw the fabulous Clearly Besotted stamp set Dandelion Dreams a plan quickly formed.
