Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #737


Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great start to your week!  How's the weather where you live?  We just got through our 37th winter.  Nothing like snow on the May long weekend (it was the long weekend in Canada).  It has been a cool spring and the majority of the snow in the mountains has yet to melt so we're still in for a big run off and lots of rain.  Welcome to spring on the east side of the Rocky Mountains!

We've got a brand new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week!  I have the privilege of being this week's hostess.  I kept the sketch simple.  It's been a busy season and I don't have the band width to deal with complicated! 

Our oldest is turning 20 this week.  I find that hard to believe since I'm only 29.  He is an avid golfer and I knew I needed a golf themed card for him.  

Supplies:
Cardstock: Hammermill White Coverstock, Smoky Slate, Basic Black, Real Red, Garden Green (SU), Silver Foil
Stamps: Clubhouse (SU Ret'd)
Ink: Detail Black (Pink Fresh Studios)
Dies: Golf Club Dies (SU Ret'd), Golf King (Crafters Companion)
Other: Subtle Texture Embossing Folder (SU Ret'd)

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you'll join in our challenge this week!  You have until Monday at 1 PM EST to get your card entered into this week's challenge.  If you need some inspiration please head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog!  There are plenty of fantastic cards posted!  

Have a wonderful day!
Jen
