Hey Grandpa!

Today I wanted to share a special request card I made for a friend's 'healthy' 94 year old Grandpa.  He lives quite far away from his family and they wanted to send a card full of love and fun memories.  

When I asked what memories they loved to share with him, she was quick to answer they all loved to play golf!  Immediately I knew the Art Impressions Gordon Golfer would be the perfect 'Just for You' card for this family.



I stamped the image and sentiment separately and used my Copic markers for the coloring.  The Pink and Main Stitched Rectangle dies were perfect for the edges and for the olive mattings.  

For the card base, I used a deep peach cardstock mat on the 5" x 7" card base and added a vertical 1/4" strip of dark rust on the left edge.   Then I secured the image, sentiments and mats as shown.    I finished the card with an olive twine wrapped at the folded several times and a loopy bow at the top. 

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.
