My dad was an amateur astronomer. He actually built his own observatory where he had a really cool telescope with a roof that slid off with a garage door opener! When I saw this paper from CTMH, I knew I wanted to do something with it for Dad......what better than a Father's Day card?

ReplyDeleteGreat card! I still have to make my dads card.... I never know what to do because he doesn't wear ties, he doesn't hunt or fish....lol...and he gets so many golf cards! Something like this would be perfect...
