Father's Day Layout / Template

I was searching for a Father's Day card inspiration and stumbled upon this AMAZING layout:

http://scrappitydodah.blogspot.com/2007/06/fathers-day-card-2007.html

I figured that I could re-create it with alphas and items in freebie folders that I've accumulated and was able to make this:



DOWNLOAD
the .pspimage with layers and the fused .png file.

It turned out so cute!! And the overall template has such possibilities!! I've made a blank one for you all to use if you want! This is for PERSONAL USE only - because most of the elements were freebies by other people, and I do not hold the copyright. I hope you can use it for your special Dad!! :)

Happy Scrappin'!
