Cute & Easy Father’s Day Card

Cute & Easy Father's Day Card
Full disclosure: I stole this easy Father’s Day Card idea from my cousin, who posted this card on Instagram for Mother’s Day. Thanks, Megan!! 🙂 

"Hands Down Best Dad" Cute & Easy Father's Day CardIt’s pretty straight forward, and it’s REALLY easy. If you’ve got one child, use both of their hands (same or different colour paint). If you’ve got multiples, everybody picks a different colour of paint, and they all get to contribute! 

Step 1: Fold a piece of 8 1/2 x 11″ paper in half width-wise. Place down on the table with the fold on the RIGHT hand side (so the card would open left to right instead of right to left. Paint 1 hand.

Step 3: Let the paint dry for a few minutes.

Step 4: Repeat Steps 3 & 4 until all children have had a chance to make a hand print.

Step 5: Turn the card upside down (so the fold is on the left hand side again) and add the text! I’m sorry, mine  sooo does not look professional.  I never got straight-A’s in penmanship. But personally, I still think it looks cute. 🙂

I'm a Netflixer, choral music geek, bookworm, inventor of recipes (I take Artistic Licence on EVERYTHING that I make), wife of one, mother of two, and owner of a neurotic Schnauzer. I respect people who respect others. I love good food that's well done, but my favourite lunch is KD & hotdogs. With ketchup. I'm addicted to Clearance Shopping. I will ALWAYS get the product that I want at the price that I want, eventually.
