I made this recently for my Dad - for fathers day.
I knew what I wanted to do with this (freebie) stamp, as soon as I saw it!
I have stamped the image onto a chalked background:
I used a cotton wool ball and some dovecraft chalks, which I have had FOREVER! :)
I embossed around the image, onto kraft card, then added a stamped deckchair...
which also came on the freebie stamp set.

I made this card in a very similar way -
this was a commission for a friend, for her children to give to their dad.
My friend has just had a baby, so I had to play about and jiggle to size this pram so that
it would fit perfectly with the freebie stamp I had.
I made the sentiment on the computer, as she specifically wanted
the word "Daddy" on there.
This card is also a lot taller and slimmer than the first card I made (above).

Love this for a male, I really like how it is not over the top and you can see the image. I think the image is a perfect image for a fathers day card and I am sure it will be very much appreciated.
