A Tribute to Fathers

 This Sunday is Father's Day - a day we take pause and give thanks for the goodness, guidance, kindness and graciousness of our Dads and all the other father figures in our lives, and there are many. This lovely and simple card today from Deb Saaranen sums it up perfectly with a verse from scripture.

The righteous man walks in his integrity,

his children are blessed after him.

Proverbs 20:7

And there are just 2 days left to our current Product of the Week sale featuring tulips and roses, so check that out at the end of this post as well.

This displays the simplicity a man will appreciate in a card.

Quick and easy to make using minimal supplies and flat for mailing - the best of all worlds!

A Godly Man (buck, scripture)

Ink Drops Organic (designer paper)

Thank you so much, Deb, for this stunning masculine card to honor all the men in our lives!
