Through the DocHipo Father’s Day Card Template above, showcase the most cherished moments that make both of you smile whenever you look at them. Choose any picture where you and your dad had a great laugh, shared heart-warming moments, or experienced something new. You can also add a single photo of your father where he looks the happiest or most stylish. Remind him of those precious times and let him know that those memories will always be special for you, and nothing can replace them.

Here’s how to upload images in DocHipo.

The next highlight here is the seamless blending of the design elements like the waves, floating rings, water bubbles, etc., with the image.

If you think the picture needs a bit of touch-up, leverage DocHipo’s Online Photo Editor.

Template 2: Photo with a Father’s Day Quote

The following Father’s Day Card Idea is to include a powerful quote along with a picture.

You can pick a Father’s Day special quote from the internet. But if you walk an extra mile to compile your thoughts about him and shape them into a quote, the smile on your dad’s face will tell you how special he felt. You can also quote that one line(s) your father would always tell you, advise you with, or that he uses frequently. 

As you can see in the Father’s Day Card Template, the transparent layer on top of the background image is to highlight the quote. We’ve used a colored shape and adjusted its opacity.

Here’s how you do that: 

Select the design element and click on the ‘Opacity’ icon in the editing panel above.

Changing the Opacity of Color Overlay

Also, the white-colored hat and mustache icon in the overlay enhances the cuteness of the Father’s Day Card design.

Template 3: Image without the Background

Our next Father’s Day Card Template is for your ever-supportive dad. Tell him what his support means to you and how great a father he is.

You can design your Father’s Day Card with repeating icons forming a pattern in the background. The icons here have a light shade so that they don’t distract the viewer from the main message but create a unique design. 

You can adjust the opacity of the icons in DocHipo to create a similar effect.

The three slanting-lined patterns added twice in the Father’s Day Card design utilize that space beautifully.

The Father’s Day Card Template above comprises a white frame design with abstract shapes and a beautiful line on the right side. I loved the layout with blue transparent, abstract shapes as if the picture is pasted on the card with cello tapes.

Since there’s a box in the picture, the design elements chosen for the remaining part of the card are box icons.

Using unconventional frames like circular ones rather than squared is another way to enhance the Father’s Day Card design image.

Look at the image of how a father’s princess is giving a Father’s Day special gift to her dear dad. The emotion captured within the photo frame is priceless.

We’ve added circular-shaped patterns in all the corners and in the middle of them for extra design elements. The shade of the color-filled box icons is light here as well.
