Golf Themed Father's Day Card with Try a Sketch on Tuesday #697

I really enjoyed creating with Try a Sketch on Tuesday #697 earlier this week so I used it to make a second card using a golf themed card for my stepson. (My first card entry can be found here). The stripes were cut from a Recollections paper called Green Grass and the golf ball was cut from a Frances Meyer scrapbook paper.  The sentiment is from "Say it in Style" stamp set from Close to my Heart.

Here is the wonderful sketch that inspired my card layout:

Masculine Theme for Try Stampin' on Tuesday #160

As a golfer I have lots of golfing friends who will receive birthday cards from me.  I was inspired to make this card by the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch #160--although I did change the orientation of it to fit the golf green.  I usually prefer to use acrylic stamps rather than digital stamps but this golf green digital image by Digi Darla seemed to fit the space well and coordinate with the turf and golf ball papers too.

Close to My Heart products used:
    Banner Wishes birthday stamp
    Outdoor Denim CS
    Tee Time golf ball stamp (retired)

Other products used:
    Golf Green image by Digi Darla (recently closed their business)
    Turf paper by Frances Meyer
    Golf ball paper by Frances Meyer

Here is the Try Stampin' on Tuesday sketch that inspired me:

Their challenge closes at midnight on Monday, April 1 (ET).
