Word Art - Mount Rushmore


Thank you for the quote ideas I got both through comments and through private email. There are a lot of great quotes out there! I finally decided to just go with my own words. I couldn't find a quote that tied together the historically "proven" great men with great men who are fathers with the eyes of a child. So I made up my own. I'm really pleased with how this one turned out.

Brushes for this LO are by Obsidian Dawn, who makes some fabulous free Photoshop brushes and textures.
Fonts used: Times New Roman, Century Gothic, Texas Hero.

I promised Word Art to some ladies who were helping me quote hunt. So here it is. I even changed it up so it would fit those precious photos of SONS and their fathers. I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for including the boys in the word art also. I have one of each so this is great. I love your layout. It is so clean and fresh and states your sentiment so perfectly with the Presidents in the background. You should enter it in a contest somewhere.

Those lovely words just bring tears to my eyes. And thank you so much for including a boy version so that I can use it for my son. As far as he is concerned, his father is *definitely* his hero.

It's remind me the fiiling I has seeing my father,and how I felt secure when we where together, doing crazy things my mother hate because they were "dangerous", like hunting, canooing on a crocodile river when we lived in Africa.
TY, I will send you my LO.

Thank you for the word art. I am going to make a Scrap Book called Daddy and Me (I saw a kit called that and it gave me the idea.) Most of my pictures as a young child were with my Dad, my Mother must have been taking them, so I decided I would just scrap us. I have been looking for special word art. Thanks a bunch.

Thank you for this Quote. It brought me to tears. I lost my father in 2003 to suicide and my world has been devasted. I can't wait to place this quote on a memorial tag for him.
