Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all fathers!  I won't be able to be with my Dad (or my father-in-law) on Father's Day but I will certainly be thinking of them.  I hope that many of you are able to be with family today. If you have recently lost a father or father figure in your life, let this be a day of celebrating your memories of him.

I'll have lots to share about my trip when I am home in a few days - these are just a couple of photos from the past few days.  Several of you correctly guessed my location.  I made a great discovery here and bought something that will provide lots of paper crafting fun to share with you!

Have a wonderful day!

Father's Day is almost here...

I have had several requests for a Father's Day project that is relatively quick and easy to do.  This word book is something I designed last year and I wondered why people were not finding it and then I realized that I didn't have a project label for "Father's Day" in the extensive label list in the right side bar.

Someone asked me about the labels recently and the letter code system that I use.  Quite a while ago I realized that it was difficult to search for particular things on my blog and started a system of labelling my labels with a code.  I did quite a bit of reorganization to try to keep things in categories.  For example, "C" stands for "Cricut Cartridge" and by putting this in front of each cartridge name, all of the cartridges should appear in alphabetical order.  I am hoping to be able to finish up with the revised categories over the summer.  In the meanwhile, I have added a label for "H - Father's Day"  which means "Holiday - Father's Day."

This book was designed with Base Camp which is a great cartridge to use for basic word books.  It could be adapted quite easily to use another font cartridge if you don't have Base Camp.  I used papers from the DCWV Natural Stack - they have a great copper metallic finish on some sheets.

The original post with all of the assembly details and the free file to download can be found HERE.  There are also directions for making the card in the same post.

I hope you have a safe and crafty weekend!
