A Crossword Father's Day Card

I always want to do something extra special for my dad on father's day.  He's such a unique person.  He's a police officer.  He loves cars, and can tell you the year, make, and model of anything that drives past.  He loves animals of ALL kinds.  Growing up, we had SO many pets!  Cats, rabbits, hampsters, a ferret, hedgehogs, turtles, snakes, alligators, lizards, you name it.  He also LOVES crossword puzzles.

Since I usually give him cards with reptiles on them, I decided to make him a crossword card this year.  I googled crossword puzzles and counted out the squares until I found one where I could fit "Happy Father's Day" in it.

Craft Us Crazy 10

This fortnight, our challenge at Craft Us Crazy is father's day and/or masculine. I chose to make another card with Stampin' Up's The Open Sea.  I'm really loving it, plus my father in law and grandfather in law were in the Navy, so it works perfectly.

Father's Day Card

This sketch came from The Fresh Batch Challenge/Stamps and Smiles. Here's my version of the sketch:

I made this card for my Dad. He has always liked lizards, and this was the perfect excuse to use my new $1 stamp from JoAnn's.
