Golf Cards with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #377

This week's Atlantic Hearts Sketch features a central focal image with a mat over paper that is also matted with a sentiment and accents.  Our challenge ends Sunday evening, July 19.  We hope you can play along by entering your creation here.

I took out a golfer's stamp from SU Clubhouse set and used it over several different golf themed papers.  The card size is 5" x 6.5" to accommodate the image size. This first card uses a "Golf" paper from an unnamed source.

Card #1:

The following two cards use SU's Clubhouse paper:

Card #2:

Card #3:

As I also have female friends who love golf I took out an old Close to my Heart stamp set called "Fore".  The golf ball paper is from "Custom Scrapbook" and the card size is 4.25" x 5.5".

Card #4:

Card #5:
