Challenge #35: Father's Day Cards

FATHER'S DAY CARDS

If we receive at least 15 entries, the prize for this challenge will be a $5 Gift Certificate for SVG files from the Creative Pointe's ON LINE STORE.

You'll find over 140 SVG files/sets available for all your paper crafting projects.

If we have less than 10 entries, the winner will receive this SVG set: DAD JERSEY.  Winner will be randomly chosen from all submissions.

One extra special entry will receive the "Creative Choice" button.

Ready for some inspiration? Let's take a look at what the Design Team created using SVG diecuts.

Carolyn got busy and created three different cards using files from the Car Set.   She says: "I created the top card's 'Happy Father's Day' sentiment using my Silhouette Studio DE Print N Cut feature; also cut the backing out of poster board and adhered with foam tape.  Brads and a white bead used for embellishing; plus silver liquid pearls used for the dots and door handle.  On the middle car I used Silver Liquid Pearls for the vents on the front; and rubbed some Colonial shade of metallic rub-ons in different areas on car to represent rust.  Happy Father's Day is from TeenyTiny Word sentiments by Stampin Up.  Finally on the bottom card, I cut the prongs off a big brad and adhered with a glue dot; and the wheels was created with same type of brads."  See more at Carolyn's blog: Granny Ma's Creative Blog

Octavia used this shaped card file and says:  "The Dad Is King cut was super easy to use. Plus it gave me the opportunity to use bling and shiny paper.  Seeing that we are in Cardinal Country I went with the red, white and black, which gave the card great contrast.  Used silver paper for the crown and embossed hearts on the crown filler, used some red bling to finish it off."  Be sure to check out Octavia's blog:  T's Corner For Scrappin'

Ruth used lots of great metallics and texture on her "manly" card!  She says:  "I had a blast using The Creative Pointe's DAD Wrench file, some silver and denim papers and an embossing folder to create this Father's Day card that I think would be perfect for that handy dad everyone should have! I sure hope you'll play along and celebrate dad with us!"  See lots more at Ruth's blog:  Paper and Musings

Cindy created a colorful card for her dad using the cart file from the new Golf Set.  She says:  My Dad is an avid golfer so I wanted something bright and fun for his day.  I shaded and highlighted the cart with Distress Markers to give it dimension."  Check out Cindy's blog for the details:  The Creative Pointe

Heather created a cool car using lots of decorative papers and a file from the Car Set.  You'll need to hope over to her blog to get all the details:  My Artistic Adventures

Shelissa also chose to use the shaped Dad Is King card.  Such a great embossed background too!  Check out her blog for more details:   Shelissa's Craft Studio

Carmen used the Gear Frame to put together all the pieces to this great card.  She says:  "This is the perfect card for my dad as he was a mechanic for many years and he loves old cars."  See more at Carmen's blog: Carmen's Creations

Tina has a great card with a "punny" sentiment perfect for golfer dads.  She says:  "A Father's Day card in honor of my own father who loved to play golf :) I used The Creative Pointe's newest cut file, Golf Set. This is one you can't do with out if you have a family member that plays golf, everything is there that you would need and it would work for miniature golf too.  To check out the inside of the card, well you'll need to come by the blog. Happy Memorial Day :)".  Tina's blog:  Tina's Scrap Corner

Tina created this lovely layout for her granddaughter using the 2014 Graduation Signs (actually she used 2012--most years are available).  She says:  "A layout created using The Creative Pointe's Graduation Signs 12 set. I loved this set as soon as I seen it and knew that I needed the route sign for the title of Britney's Graduation layout which was way past due to scrap but I got 'er done. This is a fun set to use and I added the Grads at Work sign also to the layout. We were very blessed to be invited to Brit's graduation and got seats inside to see the whole thing it was wonderful to see a grandchild graduate too."  See more of the layout at Tina's blog:  Tina's Scrap Corner

Ruth used two files to create this cute and clever free standing pop-up card.  She says:  "I love interactive cards! I just think it's a fun way to surprise someone a little when they open up a card. There are lots of fun designs right now and I thought the free standing pop-up card would be a great one for the World's Best Mom file! What better way to celebrate the World's Best Mom than with a card that will open up and stay open to show the world who the best mom is! I used a flower from the Flower Set One to add a little extra decoration without adding a lot of bulk. Come and check it out and create something for that special mom in your life for the Creative Cutting Challenge!"  Ruth's blog:  Paper and Musings

Tina created this lovely card for Mom using a file from  Flower Set One.  She says:  "I used one of the flowers from the set for the base of the flower cluster.

Heather created a gorgeous vintage style Easter card using the Rolled Roses and Fancy Flourishes-One files.  Check out her blog for all the details:  My Artistic Adventures

Carolyn created a scrapbook layout using the Race Car with Numbers because she said spring brings in NASCAR and other auto racing.  She also says:  "And the Race Is On title is from the SilhouetteAmerica online store; the race track I created from a image located on the Internet; and the borders and flags from a SVG file (from where I can't remember right now).  I also created the border for the photo mat and placed the flag in the one corner.  I used Numbers 1 as the lead car, and 2 & 4 for my great-grandchildren's ages."  For more, check out Carolyn's blog:  Granny Ma's Creative Blog

Carmen created a lovely slider card that features the butterfly from the  Garden Friends 1 set.  See more at her blog:  Carmen's Creations

Ruth used the sign from the Flower Set One to create this gorgeous spring layout.  She says:  "This is my favorite time of the year! When the world comes alive with bulbs sending flowers up through the long frozen ground! Come celebrate spring with the Creative Cutting Challenge! However you like to celebrate spring, we'd love to see your creations! My layout celebrates those first spring bulbs blooming in my yard finally after our long, harsh winter. Cindy's Flower Set 1 flower sign really was a sign for spring! Spend a little time creating and get out and enjoy the Spring!"  More at Ruth's blog:  Paper and Musings

 Cindy created a gift bag perfect for all the Showers that happen during spring using the Watering Can, Leaves & Branch and Flower Set One files.  She says:  "Last spring I was planning a wedding shower for my sister.  This May it's a baby shower!  This gift bag would be perfect for either a bridal shower or a shower gift just for the Mom-To-Be...especially because all the gifts are usually  for baby!  If you'd like the 'Shower Heading' file, click over to my blog to grab it free!"  See more at Cindy's blog:  The Creative Pointe

Tina changed up a file to create this lovely layout.  She says:  "It’s Spring layout was created with The Creative Pointe’s Mom Flowers cut file, I eliminated the letters that spelled 'Mom' and cut out letters to spell out 'Spring' on the flowers. Spring is our favorite time of the year. I went with a grid style layout and the cut file is a real fun file to use this time of the year."  See more at Tina's blog:  Tina's Scrap Corner
