Decorate to Celebrate #77 - For Dad or Birthday!!

Happy Wednesday!! I hope you are having a great week!! It's time for another challenge at Decorate to Celebrate!! This week we are celebrating Fathers!! We want to see you celebrating everything wonderful about Dads with your table decorations, party banners, pennants, yard signs, cupcakes, party favors and more!!

For my Father's Day gift, I created a fishing vest gift card holder. My Dad doesn't actually fish and he doesn't hunt (thank goodness - I'm an animal lover!!) but he loves to camp so I thought this would be a fun gift card holder for him :) I found a big book of fabric swatches at Goodwill for $.99!! Actually, there were about three and they all had amazing swatches of fabric. I cut the vest first in Kraft paper and then I chose a fabric that would work for a vest. The die is from the newest Die-Versions release - Vest Card. It cut through the fabric perfectly!! I thought the frayed edges added a bit of flair. The pin on the pocket is supposed to represent hand-tied fishing lures :)

I added a fabric pocket inside to hold the gift card. Velcro circles hold the vest closed. The banner is a Spellbinders Ribbon Banner die cut in vellum. Happy Father's Day is from Craftin Desert Divas Happy Celebrations stamp set.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

1. DL.Art - June Linky
2. ePlay Challenge - Fabric
3. Little Scrap Pieces - Show Off Saturday
4. Funday Friday - Anything Goes
5. Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
