The challenge to-day is to use wood, a picture of wood or anything wood related... Okay... I have one million, six hundred and ninety seven thousand, four hundred and twenty eight pieces of designer paper but do you think I could find one piece of wood grain?...NO!! So providing the challenge police don't look too closely I used a piece of 'sort of' wood grain paper and that background stamp always reminded me of bark on a tree..aaaand..that jute I used has to be some kind of plant fibre. Thanks to Mr Holtz the trees I used are made of wood..in real life! So maybe I can be excused..... I love the deer die-cuts from Impression Obsession..just had to have them...used them twice...la la la..you know the song! Same goes for the greeting..sigh*....I have been obsessed lately with using banner greetings..just one more..okay. Mr Noofy just might get this little gem for Father's Day..whether he likes it or not! LOL

Wonderful Father's Day card, Sue. The "wood" theme seems a natural for a "guy" card. Love your die cut scene and how you softly shaded the edges. Great looking banner sentiment too.
