Hello Friends,
Here with a snail-mail birthday card for my sweet Mother-in-law Prilla! She golfs every Wednesday with her golf-club ladies and is celebrating a birthday next week. I wanted to use my "Who's that Girl Plays Golf" stamp set from My Favorite Things to create her birthday card in honor of her love of golfing. Here is what I came up with loosely based on this week's sketch for the MFT Weekly Sketch Challenge:
I kept the card very simple and flat for mailing using the horizontal rectangle in the sketch as my jumping off point. I colored the image with my Copic markers to match the piece of patterned paper I wanted to use. I used a low-profile foam tape under the image panel to raise it just slightly from the scalloped white rectangle panel.
And to add just a wee touch of sparkle I added some 3-D Glitter Liner from Viva Decor to the golf bag opening.
I took the horizontal panel at the bottom of the sketch to the inside of my card:
I used a border die to add some interest and a "wavy" line.
Thanks for taking a look at my card!
Jill
