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:

     Krafty Chicks Challenge #577--Anything Goes

Howdy Neighbors Congrats Card with Stella Says Sketch #905

 One of my best friends just got a new job so it was a perfect opportunity to create a fun card for her.  Her favorite color is pink so I used Flamingo ink with Flamingo Card Stock with Black accents.  The pink plaid paper came from Blue Skies paper pack. The stamps came from Howdy Neighbors stamp set.  The bold "congrats" sentiment was embossed by inking in Versamark and Black ink before applying Clear Embossing Powder.

This is the fabulous Stella Says Sketch #905 that inspired my card layout:
