Looking for Father's Day card ideas? In my Marvelous Monday FB Live, I showcased the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper (on sale now) from the Beautiful Gallery Suite Collection and the Mountain Majesties Paper Pumpkin Kit stamp set (used all the cards)! I really love the sayings from the May 2025 Mountain Majesties Paper Pumpkin Kit; they’re perfect for any time of the year. Combine the stamp set with the Beautiful Gallery 6"x6" DSP for simple yet great cards for any occasion, especially for those amazing men in your life.

These cards are a perfect example of the DSP doing the heavy lifting for your project. Not much was needed after applying the Beautiful Gallery 6”x6” DSP because it is just that stunning!
I used an A2 card base in Secret Sea and Mossy Meadow cardstock, giving an extra score at 2-1/8” for the fun Z-fold. My 6”x6” DSP was cut at 2” from the left side and applied to the fold back area, with the remaining portion of the sky DSP snipped off. I then adhered the 4” piece to the inside of the card with the same 1/16” border on the right as the front piece, and snipped off the remaining sky DSP piece for the greeting.

Stamp the Paper Pumpkin Mountain Majesties Stamp Set sentiment in the matching Secret Sea or Mossy Meadow ink on the remaining 1/2”x4” DSP. Adhere the greeting to a 5/8”x4” piece of coordinating cardstock and then pop the left side up on the fold-back front flap.
For my embellishment, I used the Neutral Adhesive-Backed Sequins. I love these, as they give you four great options. I used the copper toned sequins for the Mossy Meadow card and the silver toned sequins for the Secret Sea card. My last touch was using a 3/4” strip of extra DSP on the left side of my Medium Envelope, snipping off the extra.
Happy Father’s Day
I love this card and the feeling the Beautiful Gallery 6”x6” DSP invokes. It reminds me so much of my sailing days to Catalina Harbor. For this stepped-up Z-card, I used Very Vanilla cardstock (or you could use Basic Beige) with the same fold as the above cards. I then adhered a 4-1/8”x5-3/8” layer of Cloud Cover cardstock to the left fold-back panel. I then used a 3”x5-1/4” layer of the neutral Pecan Pie colored DSP sheet (save the left-over for the sentiment) and adhered it to the right side, making sure the top, right and bottom borders were equal. I then cut a 3-1/8”x5-1/8” piece of Secret Sea cardstock, and added the 3”x5” layer of DSP on top. This allowed me to get two cards from the same DSP sheet.
As you may recall, I had lots of leftover Basic Beige embossed and die cut pieces from a card I made for a swap, and I decided this card could use the leftover center piece. I popped it up on the right side of the card, close enough to match the Cloud Cover border. I stamped my sentiment using the leftover 3/4”x3” Beautiful Gallery DSP, Misty Moonlight ink, and the Paper Pumpkin Mountain Majesties Stamp Set. I then adhered it by staggering to a 3/4”x3” layer of Secret Sea cardstock. I half popped it up and half adhered it to the Basic Beige layer.
I used the Low-Profile Dots in gold for my embellishment. For my envelope, I did the same as the above projects.
