Father's Day is sneaking up on us and it's time to get some cards made - for my husband, father and father-in-law! Remember that it's June 17 so there's a bit of time. I made this quick and simple A2 sized card (4-1/4" x 5-1/2") for my husband.
I used the new Cuttlebug folder called Mr. Maverick that is sized A2 (4-1/4"x 5-1/2") and comes with a comb border also. Mustaches are really hot right now as a decorative element (not sure about real people though...LOL!) so this is so timely and fun.
I used these super cute stamps and dies from our fabulous sponsor, My Creative Time. I love how My Creative Time always has coordinating dies to go with the stamps. See how detailed the mustache die is above - it's got built in stitching that cuts automatically. That's always the level of detail you get with these high quality dies. I used the Cuttlebug to cut these out.
Below is the "What's Growing On?" stamp set from My Creative Time. Click HERE to order.
Below is the "Here's Looking at You!" stamp set from My Creative Time. Click HERE to order.
Below, I combined two of the stamps from the set above for the inside sentiment.
Also, I have loaded the Cricut Craft Room file for Tuesday's project (see above).

These are too funny.
My goodness Joy what a fantastic card I love all the new goodies you used on it. This is truly a fun card!
I always find it difficult to come up with cards for men, so this inspiration is fantastic! The coordinating embossing is a really awesome touch, too!
What a great Father's Day card. My FIL really appreciates my handmade cards. Love the embossing that matches the cut.
Really like the mustaches. Carol M in TX/carolswingster77@aol.com
That's a really fun card! And no plans for Father's Day because I don't have a father. But I love making cards for men so keep the ideas coming!
Great card, I too have difficulty coming up with ideas for men's cards. Thanks for the Father's Day reminder.

Cute card! Thanks for the inspiration!
No special plans for Father's Day, but I'll try to be extra-nice to my husband for a change.
Thanks for sharing your card. I lost my father this past Sept. and this mustache makes me think of him! Very cute card
Like the Father's Day card. The new Cuttlebug embossing folder complements the card theme wonderfully. Father's Day plans will include me grillin' dinner & a relaxing day in the pool.

What a great Father's Day card. Love it.
I love mustaches! Very cute card.
My birth father passed in March, my step dad is out of state & my FIL has plans with other family, so I'm taking my husband to Texas De Brazil for dinner for his birthday/Father's Day, since they are 2 days apart. We have no children together, but we raised 3 collectively that are grown. We deserve a nice dinner! Happy Father's day to all the Dad's!
Cute card! I love all of your cards and I would love to win this cartridge!
Cute Father's Day card! I like the mustache embossing folder -- great background for the card.
What a great Father's Day card! You always give me a lot of great inspiration. I always look forward to your blog posts!
I like the cards and signs. I plan to make them.
Great card - and a fun embossing folder! I've not seen that one before.
I don't have a father so will celebrate Father's Day with my husband and children. We plan on spending the day at home, making his favourite meals and treating him like a king!
Love this! I always struggle with guy cards!
I love this card! My guy has a full beard and mustache. Cool die too- Love My Creative Time! lclass003atgmaildotcom
Cute father's day card, tfs as this was my first time seeing that cuttlebug folders.
I don't have any specific father's day plans as of yet, I'll probably go to church with my dad and then spend the rest of the day with my husband and daughter.
Both our Dads are not with us any more so no really big plans. Not sure what the kids have planned for my Husband if anything. I ordered my husband a new tiller for his garden which he's been wanting but it may be in a few days late. He'll love it! Love the card & thanks for a chance to win the Over the Hill cartridge.
No special plans for Father's Day-our trip was our gift to each other for Mother's Day, Father's Day and our anniversary!!!
I already have my Father's Day cards made so I am slightly ahead of the game this year...we will be planning a picnic at our camp that weekend. Great card....love the mustaches!

On Father's Day, we cook whatever Dad wants and enjoy the day together.
Great card for a guy! Thanks for sharing!
I love it! This is just too cute!
Adorable card! My in-laws and my fam are all going to a museum to celebrate Fathers day with the little kids, that way we can still celebrate Grandpa too and have fun with the kids :)
Such a cute card - love it! Will probably cook out for Father's Day:)
For Fathers day, dad gets a big nap, and maybe some brownies after.
Oh WOW, that Cuttlebug embossing folder is SO awesome for these stamps and dies. They are definitely a perfect match. I just LOVE how your card turned out! Hugs- Glora
That is a really cute card! We do not have any specific plans for Father's Day as of yet!
not sure what we are doing for Fathers day..we have both lost our dads but our kids always honor their dad..maybe we will go out for dinner.. Thanks for the idea, I will have to look for that folder..
Emma's stamp/die sets make this card a cinch...and the embossing adds so much, without being overkill! I was making Father's Day cards late last night. But, I went to bed when I started fussing with the details too much. (My husband's not big on bows or do-dads!)
It looks as though we may be heading for the Carolinas on Father's Day.
Love the mustache card, gonna have to make it for my husband too!
Love the mustach card, gonna have to make it for my husband too!

Planning to attend church with my Dad and then go back to his house to cook dinner; later in the day will go to my father-in-law's to spend some time with him.

I love the mustache card!!!!!! I think I will make something similar to it for my husband.
I would LOVE to win the Over the Hill cartridge.
This is really cute I don't have that cuttlebug folder but I think I can manage to get that mustash :)
Just discovered your blog and I've already gleaned so many ideas. Thanks for the cute Father's Day card idea. Although I won't be giving him this card on Father's Day, he will be getting a card and tickets to see his favorite Baseball team play!
Thank you Joy for the cut file for the dishwasher sign! I don't have Father's day plan as my Father passed away when I was 2. That being said Don't take the fabulous gift of having your Father for granted. I would give anything to have a Father to share that day with.
Love the card, Emma has great stamps and I really like the new embossing folder too.
What a cute Father's Day card. Love the mustache. Really simple but elegant card for any Father.

That is a blooming adorable card! I have to work on Father's Day. My husband is amazing and wonderful so we are going to try and celebrate early. He, though, says he doesn't mind at all. I <3 him!!! Karyn
My Dad is on Vacation for Father's Day so we will be spending it with my father-in-law.
This is cute even if I can't stand mustaches.
My school has no idea the monster they've unleashed by allowing mustaches (they used to ban them).
Such an adorable card!! I haven't seen the CB folder before - it's fabulous!! Our Father's Day will be 'officially' celebrated on that Monday when our youngest daughter arrives home from a semester abroad in Melbourne, Austrailia!! On Sunday, I think I'll 'scraplift' your great idea (alas, w/o the CB folder!) for a card & make a chocolate cake!!
Okay, found the spot. Great card. Unfortunately there are no longer any fathers on my and my husbands side for us to send to but there are still 2 fathers for our children and 1 grandchild to send to. Yeah Thanks
I love the fathers day card with the mustache. Very creative.

Super-cute card! Love the mustache emblem that's son popular right now.
For Father's Day, we'll probly go out to eat and let my hubby relax - his bday is June 15, so he gets a double celebration!
Love all the mustache details and the twine! It's a perfect father's day card. You've inspired me to get busy!
Love that Cuttlebug embossing folder. They are definitely a perfect match. Cute card.
Love the card! No big plans for Father's Day. Church. Maybe fix something good to eat. Call my dad.

mwiechmann6@gmail.com
Awesome card. Love the embossing folder. I will have to keep a lookout for that one.
I love the over the hill cartridge and would love to win it.
We are planning a low key Father's day this year. My father passed away several years ago and I just returned from a long trip to bury my mother. I think we are due some quite time to reflect.
Mari
Such a cute card, wish Dad had a mustache.
Cool card! I remember hearing that mustaches were going to be a trend, several months before they actually started appearing anywhere and I wondered, what will you do with mustaches? This is a great example! Thank you!
I don't have my Dad to make a card for. So, I make cards for my grandnephew and grandniece's Dad. This would be a super card to make for him. Thanks for the opportunity. But, I hope I'm lucky enough to be a winner.
Very fun Father's Day card!
I am very excited about Father's Day because my husband's favorite cousin's wife and I ordered them golf passes for the 2 of them to go sometime together. They are always wanting to, but haven't been able to because of money and time and whatnot, so we thought that we would make sure that it would happen for them.
Awesome! We are staying home for Father's Day.
My father is in heaven so I will celebrate with my 3 sons who are fathers!!!
Awesome card! Thanks for the Ideas.
I had to chuckle seeing the mustache card. It is a clever idea. THANKS!
Lisa Smith...Alburtis, PA
Loven' this card! So think the combo of the mustache and with the cuttlebug folder to match is adorable! As for Father's Day, not one of our 3 kids will be here so I will just make it special for him anyway.
Mct products seem awesome. Can't wait to clear up my budget to get some of the items. Not sure yet about what we are doing for Father's Day. Will probably leave it up to my husband..
Cute folder and card!

Joy...Please tell me how & why this mustache craze has started!!! It must have come from out west!! My son moved to Oklahoma a year ago and met a girlfriend. Her father has a mustache, and she & her father post pictures all the time with mustaches and I always wandered about the hype and connection. Then I've seen mustaches popping up all over craft websites in the form of stamps and diecuts lately. What's up with that?? Most of the cards I see & sentiments are cute...but don't understand the connection.
Cool Father's Day card!

No Father's Day plans yet.
Your card is cute. I can see other uses for those mustache shapes. Our son is entertaining us and his in-laws for Fathers' Day this year, as he did last year, with a wonderful BBQ for both families.
I love the mustashe card! Love the use of both the cricut cutouts and the cuttlebug embossing. Such awesome details make the card truly special!

Cute card for fathers day. My father has passed away about 11 years ago. So we get together for my husband as he is a father 5 times. Would love to win. Thank you.

Love the Mustache Father's Day card. I have been seeing the Mustache sayings all over Pinterest.
This is such a fab card - we are probably going to the baseball on Fathers Day - just a chill afternoon to look forward too. TFS
Hello, I am trying to win your cartridge as I have very little of them...I am disabled and it is hard for me to save up the money to get any.. I love to scrapbook..it is my life it is what I love doing and it brings me much happiness. I am in a wheelchair most of the time so I don't get out much and scrapbooking is all that I do, my daughter got me a cricut a few years ago and it has been a dream come true. A+ for scrapbooking
My daughter and I will be hanging out with my DH. My Dad has passed and his Dad lives a ways away. Love your mustache card. TFS.

What a great Father's Day card...or gag card for my friend also going through menopause. Love it!

This cart seems like a fun one. Would love to win. Great card.
Love the Father's day cards...kind of brings a tear to my eye and sadness in my heart. This will be my first Father's Day without my father...he passed on August 29, 2011.

This card is so cute, I would even make it and give to girlfriends.
All of the men in my life have passed away so I will spend Father's Day remembering them. I love the card and was so excited to learn I can get the same cut from Everyday Paper Dolls which I do have.
