Happy Father's Day Card!

Hi there,

I was able to make a card for my dad before I went on vacation, so I could take it home with me.  The following card was a 5"x7" card using the Cruisin' Paper Pack from Close To My Heart and the Simply Charmed Cricut cartridge.  I cut the shirt at 5" and it fit perfectly on the card.  I also inked the edges of the card and was able to stamp the inside with My Pink Stamper's "Happy Father's Day" sentiment.  He'll open it tomorrow even though I left it on his pillow on Tuesday since he was at work when I left for the airport.  To go along with this, my sister and I went halvsies on a set of 4 Samuel Adams bar glasses because he loves the beer and believes it tastes better from their glasses.  So, she'll bring that to him tomorrow since she lives in the same city as him.  He's going to love it.

Here are some pictures of the card.
