Happy Friday, friends! Today we are wrapping up our Father’s Day Week with our friends at Simple Stories! Their wonderful Simple Sets give you the perfect amount of coordinating products to create with, and they have the perfect Simple Set to celebrate Father’s Day! Let’s take a look at it and some beautiful projects you can create with it! Plus, don’t miss the giveaway at the end of the post!

Hello, fellow paper crafters!  We are so excited to be sharing some fun projects all about FATHERS today! Here at Simple Stories, we love to offer smaller sets, Simple Sets, that are perfect for niche events and holidays! We have SO MANY options, so be sure to take a look around our site to see them all!

Today we are featuring our Father’s Day collection all about the special men in our lives!  From dads and grandpas to uncles, brothers, friends, and more, we LOVE them all!  You can see our Father’s Day Simple Set here and find it at your favorite local or online store today!  And don’t miss our “above par” giveaway at the end!

This collection is perfect for highlighting memorable moments or crafting the perfect gift card! Who doesn’t love a good layout of the best memories? Or a handmade card made especially for that favorite guy? Or maybe a little tag for that gift you purchased? Jodi (@makeaprettylife) created a fun mix of projects to show you today so that you can go create your own before Father’s Day sneaks up on you! All of these projects were created with our Father’s Day Simple Set and our coordinating Color Vibe papers and buttons!

Let’s take a closer look at each so you can create your favorite!  On our first project, we created a personalized card by adding a mini photo to it! Isn’t that so fun? We printed this photo at home on our own, but you can also use those cute index prints that come with photos that you print at your local store—just make sure to ask for one to be included! The mini photos are also great for little embellishments on your layouts, too! Simply cut out a tag, add your selected Simple Set Father’s Day products, some stitching, and a bow, and this card is customized to perfection!

For a more general card, try this cute pocket card—this one is great for adding cash or a gift card into the little pocket in front! Pick your favorite designs and tuck them into the pocket along with any gift card, etc. you might want to include! And don’t forget a nice note inside!

Our last card is for the guy that just loves golf—or even if he doesn’t, the pun alone is cute enough for any guy to appreciate! That fun golf-style gingham, along with the ‘par’ 3×4 card makes for a quick and easy handmade card and lets them know they are the best in your eyes!

For a really quick tag, simply use one of the 3×4 cards in the collection and matte it with coordinating Color Vibe paper! I just loved that ‘mower’ one for my hubby since he loves his lawn! Attach it to your gift sack with a fun ‘junk bow’ and you’ve got another very quick, but a fun customized gift!

Finally, don’t forget to HIGHLIGHT those memories in a layout! This project is in an 8.5 x 11 format (my preferred size, but could easily be matted onto a 12×12 page and look amazing!) The colors in this collection are great for both color and black-and-white photos so I opted to use both for a nice mix! This layout is pretty clean with fun clusters and multiple photos! There are so many fun options, even in our smaller Simple Sets collections, that you will find all you need to highlight Dad, Grandpa, Uncle, or a friend!

We can’t forget our giveaway! One lucky winner will be receiving our entire Father’s Day Simple Set to create with!
