Last spring, I decided semi-last minute to do a craft for Father’s Day. I found this on Pinterest :
“Heartfelt quotes” aren’t really our thing, and they’re definitely not my husband’s thing. But I figured it was a great basic idea.
Here’s my take on it:
This was a really quick and easy project, and I only used things I already had.
First, I used my black stamp pad to stamp each baby’s footprint, so that together they made a heart. (I wrote each baby’s name next to the print.) This was just on regular copy paper.
The background is scrapbook paper, the blue heart is another piece of scrapbook paper. I wanted a cool pattern for the letters, but didn’t like any of the paper I had, so I actually went online and into Photoshop to make a pattern. I then typed out the letters in outline and printed it all, and painstakingly cut out the letters.
Then I put it into an empty IKEA frame we had lying around. Et voila–Happy Father’s Day!
This is a really easy craft, and super customizable. And best of all, besides being free, it’s super cute and a great keepsake!
