Lady Golfer Thank You Card with The Paper Players Sketch #551

 Indian Corn Blue is one of my favorite Close to My Heart colors which retired many years ago so I used its coordinating patterned paper, card stock, ink and marker.  The lady golfer is also from a retired CTMH stamp set called Tee Time and the Thank You greeting is from a retired stamp set called Many Thanks.

Here is the fabulous The Paper Players Sketch #551 that inspired my card layout:

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:

     Simon Says Wednesday--Anything Goes

     Colouring in Scrapland--Stripes, Blue or Anything Goes

     Allsorts--For a Lady

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!

Golfing Lady with Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch #503

Apart from cardmaking Golf is a passion of mine and I have lots of friends who receive golf themed cards.  I also like using up favorite vintage papers, retired colors and stamps. (Close to My Heart Indian Corn Blue Background & Texture Paper, Outdoor Denim Cardstock, Tee Time stamp).  Instead of cutting an oval as the sketch suggests I used Fancy Stitched Bracket Frames.

Here is the fabulous Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch #503 that inspired my card layout:
