I used a green Copic Marker (G14) &amp; a white Gelly Roll pen to give some texture and dimension to the frogs. I don&#8217;t have the dies for this set so I used the Brother Scan N Cut machine to cut the images out. I Cut the word Dad out of some smooth brown card using the MFT Dad die, I cut it out 3 times for each card, the top layers for each have been embossed using the Spellbinders Knock on Wood 3D embossing folder. I used Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink to give it some shading. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.3-2.png\" alt=\"Hoppy Father's Day card.

The ponds were created using Peacock Feathers &amp; Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide inks, again adding some splatter detail. I created come grass using Mowed Lawn &amp; Twisted Citron Dstress Oxide ink &amp; cut out using the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border die. I used some foam pads behind the front section of grass to create some dimension &amp; space for the Dad die cut to sit. The sentiments &#8216;You&#8217;re Toadally Awesome&#8217; &amp; &#8216;Hoppy Father&#8217;s Day&#8217; were made using the Toadally Awesome stamp set, they are stamped on the front of the cards. I added some Dovecraft glitter glue to the flowers &amp; dragonflies to give them a little sparkle. These cards are so fun &amp; playful, I can&#8217;t believe it took me a whole year to play with them! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"A shot of both hand made Father's Day cards. \" class=\"wp-image-657\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/thebeestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Blog2.1-1.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for stopping by, I have listed my supplies below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supplies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lawn Fawn \u2013 Toady Awesome<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lawn Fawn \u2013 Grassy Border<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lawn Fawn &#8211; Cloudy Stencil <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>MFT Stamps &#8211; Dad Die <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spellbinders &#8211; Knock on Wood Embossing Folder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brother Scan N Cut Machine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress Oxide Ink \u2013 Tumbled Glass<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress Oxide Ink \u2013 Salvaged Patina<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress Oxide Ink \u2013 Peacock Feathers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress Oxide Ink \u2013 Twisted Citron<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Distress Oxide Ink \u2013 Mowed Lawn<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paper Mill Direct \u2013 Pro Design 300gsm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paper Mill Direct \u2013 Apple Green Card Plain 240gsm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Versafine Onyx Black Ink<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Faber Castel Polychromos Colouring Pencils<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gamblin \u2013 Gamsol<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sakura Black Glaze Pen<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>White Gelly Roll Pen <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Copic Markers &#8211; Sketch G14<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dovecraft \u2013 Crystal Glitter Glue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I brought this Lawn Fawn Toadally Awesome stamp set last year with the intention of making Fathers day cards but sadly didn&#8217;t get around to it.
