Happy Father's Day Pilot Edwin Cake Card

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers!! Hope you all are having a fun and happy Father's Day. My father is in a nursing home. Since my USA sisters are here joining all my local sibling together, we will be going to my dad's nursing home to bring him special lunch. As this past week I have all my sisters here for a visit, I really didn't have much time doing anything in my craftroom. However, we do enjoy the company. Then I thought, well...Father's Day, I really wanted to do a Father's Day card to post. I actually colored this image and did the cake card base earlier and finally just quickly assembled it together. Because of my lack of time, I really didn't do much details but rather leave it simple. This card is made with Pilot Edwin of the 2010 Bon Voyage Collection I bought from Magnolia-licious a while ago. The Father's Day sentiment is from Stampin Up.

I am also using this card for the following challenges:
Glitter Geeks Week 2 Challenge - Male/Father's Day
Craft Us Crazy Challenge #10 - Father's Day and/or Masculine Theme
Crafty Sentiments Design Challenge - Father's Day
Mami Doodles Challenge #28 - Card For a Boy or Man
Dutch Dare Card Challenge 117 - For the Boys
Wags 'n Whiskers Stamps Challenge #56 - One For the Boys
Terrifically Thrilling Thursday Challenge - Card/project for the Boys/Men
2 Sisters Challenge #44 - For a Guy
Paper Creator's Craft Challenge #1 - For the Men
Simply Stampin Challenge #12 - You've Got Male (Stampin Up Sentiment)

Pixie Cottage Challenge #22 - Father's Day Theme

Thank you for check my 2nd pre-scheduled post today. For those of you who is not here earlier, sorry, but I am on holiday this week but I am making sure that I prepared my blog posts for you and hope you don't mind this.

Yes, it's the Pixie Cottage Challenge #22 already. Father's Day is coming up soon, so this week's challenge is to challenge you to create a project using the "Father's Day theme".

I am using this card for the following challenges:
One Stitch at a time challenge #16 - Boys to men
The Shabby Tea Room week #13 - Just for Dad
SD #19 - Just 4 you dad
Sir Stampalot June Challenge - Punch it
Cards for Men - Father's Day
Always Playing with Paper #1 - Father's Day or a Masculine theme
Wee Memories #9 - Punch It
AiFactory Challenge #38 - Anything goes with a punch

My card today is a Father's Day card using the "Down on the Farm" stamp from The Pixie Cottage Stamps. Here is my finished card. I think many of you who reads my blog knows that I am not very good at making boys/men theme cards, but I think this image can be great to use for a Father's Day card to give. Since this is in a men theme, I tried not to use any girly embellies.


Here is a closer view on this sweet image.
