Card: Father's Day 2012

Last Wednesday night I made my dad his father's day card. I had fun working with the digi image, which I got from Bugaboo Stamps.  My dad isn't a "Tim the Toolman" type person, though he can fix the odd job around the house if need be. However, I figured he would appreciate the humor of the sentiment that goes with this image.  I'm really happy with how this card turned out.
