Father's Day Cards!


Even if the dad in your house isn't a shirt-and-tie kind of guy, he's sure to love this stylish Father's Day card.

CRAFT MATERIALS:
Decorative scrapbook paper
Glue
Scissors
Time needed: 30 Minutes or Less


1. To make one, first cut a 4- by 12-inch rectangle from a piece of decorative scrapbook paper and fold it in half to create a double-layer 4- by 6-inch rectangle.

2. Form the collar by cutting 2 matching 1-inch-long horizontal slits about 1 inch below the fold. 3. Fold over the 2 flaps as shown, then glue them down with a 5-inch-long tie shape cut from another piece of decorative paper glued between them. Glue a pair of small buttons to the collar. 4. Once the glue has dried, lift the bottom front of the card and write a Father's Day greeting inside.
