Father's Day Free Printable - UPDATED

***UPDATE: I replaced the links with mediafire links, hopefully this will fix the problem***UPDATE x2: I put in some links for a 16x20 denim version and a green Stepdad version***

Since I was sooo behind the times on getting a free printable out for Mother's day this year, I decided to get a father's day print out much earlier. I did another subway art type graphic print but about dad-isms. You know...all those rules and epithets that all great dads say like, "Stop making that face or it'll get stuck that way!" I know my dad always had rules and expectations about how we children were to behave, and now that I'm an adult with children of my own, I definitely appreciate all that he did for us. I now know that all those rules were designed to protect us, nurture us, and make us become more compassionate adults.


Also, if you don't get the message, try reading the colored words. I call this one, "dads rule!"
I've created this 5x7 design in four lovely shades: denim, citrus, robin's egg, and pea green. You can see a sample of all four colors below. If you want a different color or size, just message me or drop a comment below and feel free to follow my blog as I plan to create more free printables in the future! The card looks great printed on heavy cardstock. Then write a personal message or poem on the backside, sign and date, and frame. You don't have to frame it, but it looks really lovely in a black frame.



Here's the links to the downloads:
Click  HERE for the denim version
Click  HERE for the citrus version
Click  HERE for the robin's egg version
Click  HERE for the pea green version
Click  HERE for the denim 16x20 version
Click  HERE for the green Stepdad version


Please respect my work and don't try to pass the design off as your own, or resell it. Please don't distribute it in any way, but if you want to share the design, please share this blog post. Thanks!

Also, if you're a fan of the original design that I created for Mother's day and want me to switch out MOM with DAD just let me know. I just wanted to do something a little bit different for the fathers out there. You can see that original design HERE

  4. Thanks so much for stopping by blog and commenting on my kitchen jars! I LOVE your father's day printables-some of those sayings made me laugh out loud just remembering my dad (and mom!) saying them! Following you now :)

  5. Hey Tigger, I got the green to work just fine. You have to click on the word "here" and not the green (which is what I suspect you tried). Try clicking on the word here for the green version and if it still doesn't work let me know. Thanks, Amy :)

  6. Thank you so much for sharing this. I really appreciate it as my kids and I will be leaving for an almost two month vacation on fathersday without my husband.
    I'm planning on hiding little things around the house for him and this is perfect for that.

    Hi Amy,

    Like the others, I thank you for sharing such a fun printable! I'm also having trouble opening the green version. I clicked on 'HERE', was taken to box.net to sign in to an account, and haven't found the file for downloading. HELP! The green is my favorite! Please advise!! Many thanks!

  23. I absolutely loves this and can't wait to print this off for my husband however the link said it was no longer available, what am i doing wrong?
    HELP!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. I think I need to find a different file-hosting website. I'm not sure why it's giving you that message. It's not giving one to me...can you email me at Amerz216@aol.com along with your color preference and I'll just send the file that way? Sorry for the hassle!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I have a special request. I LOVE this design, but my kids have a stepdad that this would be perfect for ... could you make a stepdad version? The only change would need to be the last line. It's so hard to find good, non-sappy cards for a stepdad.

    P.S. Love the green one.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I am in LOVE! I am totally having one of those "why didn't I think of that" moments. Give this printable to dad with a note attached.... "yes dad! I WAS listening" :D

    ReplyDelete
  27. So adorable! It was truly amazing! My dad will absolutely love this card! But same error. I can't find the link too. I will suppose to make a card for my dad in my own idea but when I saw this card I was stunned! Please do email me before the June 15, give me the link of that card. Thanks email me at: marion.belga11@gmail.com. Thanks.

  28. Hi Mrs. C, I'd love to replaced the green one with "step-dad." Can you email me or post your email address so that I can send it to you?

  30. My husband's cousin forwarded this link to me so I could see this. What a great poster this will make: I'm going to download this for him for father's day. Thanks!!!

  31. Wow, this is just so cool. I really love your style! I found you through eighteen25, and I will definitely be a new follower.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Oh my...that is just adorable. Thank you so much for sharing your talent! I found you through eighteen25 and have already bookmarked you. Quick question....do you do any custom work? I have looked high and low for some bathroom subway art, even Etsy, and can't seem to find anything. I have all of the words and phrases that I want and would like to hang a 16x20 poster in my daughters bathroom....I just can't seem to find it. If this is possible, just shoot me an email with your pricing. Thanks again.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Sorry, I can be reached at sgrimshaw01@charter.net. per the bathroom subway art question listed above. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Love this! I have a frame that holds 16x20 prints that I like to switch out for the holidays and this one is perfect. Can you add a larger one in the denim? Pretty please?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I just posted a couple new links in the download area. One is for a green stepdad version and one is for a 16x20 denim version. Thanks everyone for your kind words!

    By the way, this is Amy (blog owner)..I can't post comments as my blogger account for some reason..ugh!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Love this - thanks. Ive pinned it on my Pinterest!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Amy -- thanks so much for the great subway art! I've printed two for my dad and my father-in-law. However, my husband will see those before Father's Day, so I was wondering if you could switch out the MOM with DAD on the original design that you created for Mother's day? Perhaps in the denim color? Thank you for being so accommodating to all our requests! My email is LME1977(at)hotmail.com Lisa :)

  38. Love this! thanks so much! I just pinned it in pInterest too!
