How to Make a 'My Hero' Medal Set Fathers Day CardM

In 8 Cool Hand Drawn Steps
playful parenting


Just choose the six medals that best describe your Dad, or take a blank medal and illustrate it yourself (see below).

A Fathers Day card Dad will wear with pride, not just put on the shelf (although there’s an option for doing that too!).
Either way, this personalised set of medals is a great way to celebrate your Dad’s best qualities… you know, like Groovy Mover, Brilliant BBQer, Coolest Coach etc.
Step by Step Guide
It’s really easy to make your own ‘My Hero’ custom medal set Father’s Day card. Start off by downloading the Medals and Ribbon artwork below…
Got the artwork? Let’s begin…

Step 1: Print out the medals and ribbon artwork onto two sheets of A4 paper or card.
Step 2: Colour in the ribbons and then cut along the solid line that surrounds all six ribbons.
Step 3: Choose six medals that best describe your Dad’s unique qualities, or use the blank medals to draw your own fun ‘character traits’. Colour them in and cut them out.

Step 4: Attach each medal onto the end of a ribbon using glue or small tubes of sticky tape (centre them on top of the ‘x’s).

Step 5: Fold an A4 sheet of paper or card (210gsm) in half to form the greeting card.
Step 6: Next, fold the top of the ribbons over, along the dotted line, and attach to the front of the card using a safety pin.
Step 7: Write a fun headline on the front of the card… something like ‘To the Best Dad in the World’ or ‘My Hero Dad’.
Step 8: Finally, write your personal message on the inside of the card and then stick the whole thing into an A5 envelope.
All done, and ready to give to Daddy!

Creative Takeaway
Ideas like this are perfect if you’re not a confident drawer, because the charm is in the fun personalisation, not the quality of the drawings.
