Happy Father's Day!

Project: Father's Day Present for dear old dad

Materials: Scissors, glue stick, paper expertly crumpled by my sister

My dad has a giant vegetable garden in the backyard, full of a wide variety of produce. Of all the various vegetable life he grows, I think his favorite are the red beets. So, for Father's Day, I thought I would immortalize his favorite veggie on paper. Caitlin had the good idea of crumpling the leaves to make them more realistic. This is my first piece using texture, and I think it worked pretty well. Thanks for the idea, sister!

The wrapping job. We don't seem to have any wrapping paper that isn't holiday-themed, so I had to use tissue paper:

To all those dads out there, Happy Father's Day! Hope it's a good one.
