Still on the Golf


I'm back with another golfing card today, made from one of the stamps that I recently received from Stamp Addicts.

I am so gutted, as I have made loads of cards in readiness for a Create and Craft show next week, and I was due to drop them off at the shop today, but the deluge of snow meant that the shop couldn't open, and I would have struggled to get over there anyway. Oh well - them's the breaks as they say.

Perhaps my cards will be on one of their shows another day.

In the meantime, a little bit about this card. The recent breakdown of my printer caused me to have to use up some of my scraps and this is where I found these backing papers which, I thought, were just perfect for the theme. My golfer is coloured with Spectrum Noirs and I have used candy dots for the wavy line. I tried to make them look a bit like golf balls by adding dots with my super fine promarker nib.

So a very clean and simple card.....but it would be a good one for my dad I think!!

Here are a few challenges that I am going to enter:

Inky Chicks - Anything Goes
Card Makin Mamas - Clean and Simple
Make it Monday

So that's the end of my little post for today.

I hope to be back tomorrow with something a little girly.

Thanks for stopping by.

  5. Hi Sharon, Great card for the golfer in your life! The papers go perfectly with the stamp. Shame about the show. We have heavy snow again here in West Sussex, so we are unable to get to my Granddaughter's birthday today. Hugs, Carol S.xx
