Fab Friday Sketch Challenge #179

January 2, 2020

I used the sketch challenge at Fab Friday to create a card for my Dad’s birthday which is today.  I used product from the Country Club Product Suite which is in the 2020 Handmade for You Mini Catalogue to create this card.  It suits my Dad perfectly because he loves golf and although he just turned 89 he still plays at least twice per week.  I cut a large rectangle from a piece of Whisper White card using the Stitched Rectangle Dies and attached it to scored and folded Night of Navy card.   The Country Club Designer Series Paper has a couple of sheets of images which are perfect to use with the Watercolour PencilsSo I trimmed the paper to 4″ strips and used a slightly smaller Stitched Rectangle Die to cut out the image.  I coloured the image using the Watercolour Pencils Assortment 2.  I use my finger to smooth out the colour once I have applied it to the paper, very technical!  I attached the coloured image panel to the centre of the card front using dimensionals.  I stamped the greeting from the Clubhouse stamp set onto Night of Navy card using Versamark ink.  I sprinkled the greeting with White Embossing Powder and heat set it. I cut out the image using one of the co-ordinating Golf Club Dies and attached it to the left hand side of the image panel.

To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the golf ball image from the Clubhouse stamp set onto the lower left hand corner of Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I used a couple of colours from the  Watercolour Pencils Assortment 2 to colour the image as well as the Gray colour from the Watercolour Pencils.  Again I used my finger to smooth out the colour on the image.

I love the finished result and my Dad does too.

Bye for now,

Kris
