Father’s Day Gift Tags

The newsagent across the road takes off all the free gifts from all the unsold children's comics and then sells them for 30p each or 4 for £1 and I have found some really brilliant bits and piece for crafting with, because of their size they are perfect.

…. and so whenever I see tool sets in his box  I snaffle them up as fast as I can ….. because the first thing that comes into my head are Dads and Father’s Day!

All I have done is cut tag shapes from a fine corrugated Kraft card (I used my last sheet for this idea and now don’t have a clue where I can find any more).

I have stuck the tools down with E600 glue, a glue recommended to me by Marc because it is really strong and can be used with so many materials.

And finally I’ve used my faithful Dymo labeller for the wording. A few silver stars here and there bring everything together.  Done and dusted!

Father’s Day Tool Kit Card

This card measure 5ins x 5ins and is made with hand cut blanks using white linen effect card.

These embellishments are gorgeous ….. they are part of a packet sent to me from Dianne in Florida and came from Michaels …. a shop I long to purchase profusely in one day …….

I’ve teamed them up with a scrap of A4 Kanban wooden fence card and another matching paper adding a few small silver brads in the corners. The wording is done on my faithful old Dymo label maker which is ideal for men's cards.
