Father's Day Card with Cricut Artiste

My husband kept asking me for a card for his dad for Father's Day so he could mail it in time.  I thought I could find something in my stash that was already created, but everything was too girly. I'll have to spend a day creating some masculine cards.  But there was no time for that now.  I needed to produce a card quickly so it could get in the mail.  I whipped up this Father's Day card in less than 30 minutes which is fast for me.  I have a hard time committing when it come to paper patterns and placement.  

I dug through some scraps (love that) and looked at MojoMonday sketches to get my juices flowing.  The sentiment is from the Artiste Cricut cartridge, a CTMH exclusive.

Have a memorable day,
