Time to Tee Off

Morning Folks!

Can't believe that it's Tuesday again already, but of course that means that it's time for another challenge over at Passion for Promarkers. This time the challenge chosen by Lorraine is

SPORTS / HOBBIES

As soon as I saw this theme, I knew what I wanted to do - not typical for me! I had been sorting through some older papers, and this sheet of Nitwits paper made me think of golfers jumpers, so why not combine it with the super cute 'Missed You' Penny Black stamp:

Not sure that many golf courses would welcome poor hedgehog - he doesn't seem to have got the hang of hitting the ball without wrecking the green!

Card Details:

Stamp - Penny Black - Missed You

Paper - Nitwits - Strawberry Social Diamond 

Cream card & scraps from stash

Coloured with Promarkers

Embossing Folder - Die'sire

Sentiment - Magazine Freebie

Dies - Golf clubs and bag - Memory Box 

Grass - Die'sire - Icicle

Clouds - Impression Obsession?

Die Cut Thanks

Morning Folks!

Today sees the start of the first challenge for 2017 over at Sparkles Monthly . Babs has choosen the theme of 

THANK YOU

Here's my card, the first card in ages without any stamping on it. I raided the scraps box for a bright assortment of colours and a piece of black stripey paper - possibly antique Doodlebug?? I put the cuttlebug into overdrive with nesties octagon dies. The black card surrounding the letters is recycled from some packaging and is actually quite shiny but not showing up too well in the photo ;-(

 The silver die cut letters were cut using a Tim Holtz Vintage Market Alphabet die. Have to admit, I thought this card was going to be quick to make but after all the die cutting and tricky lining up to assemble I think it would have been quicker to colour up a large stamp!!

Thanks for visiting today and for any comments you leave. I hope you can join us over at Sparkles this month!
