For a Stamp Set that I was truthfully not crazy about…I have learned to LOVE the end result! Dapper Dad might be going "bye-bye" but is sure makes an impact here!

I have a friend that is an avid golfer and what better way to wish her special wishes than this cute card! I did a card similar several weeks ago but this time I gave it a feminine feel!

I know you like it when I give you dimensions so here you go! Please email me if you have any questions but I will say – this is a simple card that has a big WOW!!! Have fun  making it!

  • Card base a regular A-2 whisper white card stock with the center white piece cut at 4" X 2 1/2".
  • Next came the 3 color strips( each 1 1/2" X 4") in the colors Pistachio Pudding, Melon Mambo and So Saffron, then with the help of my Stampin' Man, Mr. Big Shot, he went to town with the Argyle Folder creating a fabulous texture to compliment the golf shoe!
  • Stampin Dimensionals went all over the back to the shoe to bring it to the fore front so the Argyle Folder can really shine!

  • I thought a bit of "flowers" would be a great touch so out came the Boho Blossoms Punch ( I 1st squished the paper up then flatten it out before punching to give it a softer effect! THen as we know – Pearls are a girls best friend…they went centered stage on the flowers! Too darn cute!
  • The envelope had to make a statement and I thought a piece of fun polka dots from the Subtles Designer Series Paper would be the finishing finale to this special card! I love the look of a flap covered…so special!
