Father's Day Cards with Photos




Hello Blogging Friends,

It is Tuesday today and time for my weekly post.
Today I have two Father's Day cards I made using photos to share.
I struggle with Father's Day cards...putting a photo on them makes it so much easier and quicker and the recipient tends to like it a lot.
The one above is my Dad and I back in 1980.
The one below is the one I made for my Grandfather.


Lastly a photo of my beautiful Nicholas.  Can you believe he is sitting up now for short bursts and has cut two teeth!!  He is growing before our very eyes.  My heart overfills with love for him.

I hope you are having a wonderful week.
See you again soon,
Love Alicia xxx

Oh Alicia these are beautiful. (p.s. the crochet flower is up side down, but we will call that artistic license).
Nicholas looks gorgeous - we are just home from visiting our DGS and he is such a sweetie too, but much to his mothers dismay the teeth have gone back down!
Blessings

Loving the Father's Day cards. Photos do help make for quick cards and trips down Memory Lane. :) Hugs....
