Since I sent Mother’s Day cards to my sister and sisters-in-law this year, I thought it only fair that I send Father’s Day cards to my brother and brother-in-law too.
This first card is for my brother-in-law Brian. He is a fan of John Deere. I used OWH Stars & Stamps Sketch Challenge #20 and the OWH Stars & Stamps Mid-week Throwdown to make masculine cards. To qualify for the mid-week throwdown, I made a second of the same card, but changed the sentiment to read “a happy hello.” This second card will be sent to Operation Write Home.
