How to make a trophy card for Father’s Day?
Step 1

Download and print the trophy craft printable template available in our shop. Print page 1 of the template on colored A4 cardstock (We used yellow).
Print page 2 of the template on white A4 cardstock.
Step 2

Cut out the parts from the template. Use the white handle shapes to trace and cut out handles from a piece of yellow cardstock (Only if you prefer the handles to be the same color as the trophy)
Step 2

Fold the sides of the trophy shape towards the middle. Glue the handles behind the trophy.
Apply glue all over the back of the trophy shape except the handles. Now, let’s stick it on a blue cardstock. Gently bend the handles forward to create a 3D look.
Step 3

Make a small paper roll out of the rectangle-shaped paper strip. Stick it at the bottom of the trophy. Write a short message like ‘Best Dad’, ‘World’s Best Dad’ or ‘#1 Dad’ on the small bow shape and stick it on the paper roll.
Step 4

Stick the white piece of cardstock inside the trophy shape to write your message on.
Use the star-shaped pieces to cut stars out of glitter paper for a truly eye-catching decoration. If you don’t have any glitter paper, try coloring the stars from the template instead.
Stick the stars near the trophy and one on the trophy, and when you’re done open the sides of the card and write your heartfelt message for Dad!
Our Father’s Day trophy craft is ready. How cute is it?!

It’s sure to be a keepsake treasure that Dad will cherish for years to come.
