Lilacs

This card is for MMSC 108 Sketch Challenge.  The lilacs are from Stanzbogen Die Cuts.  The butterflies are from Recollections.  The Cardstock and pearls are from my Stash.

Was away last week, golfing for 3 days with a group of 14 had a great time the weather was good all the time we were away.  Card day Thursday, all day.  Friday my husband wanted to go to the Falls and because I am the driver - away we went had a good day there.  Not too much rest over the weekend, so when I golfed this am. at 7:27 - you could tell I was tired - probably should have taken a cart.

Old Fashion Golf

I am going to enter this card into the CDAC Midnight Madness challenge MMSC105, I have chosen the KISS version of the sketch we were provided with.  I am quite pleased with my card.  The image from the Stamp Barn  is embossed, with Stampendous black embossing powder.  The paper has a leather feel to it and the back is a metalic copper color.  It is from my stash so don't know the mfg.  The ribbon top and bottom is one of my favorites for male cards. it is from So-Facile Canada Inc.  

The above is a card for my eldest sons birthday, I do love to tease him about his age.  He is retired now, but works under contract.  He does have more time for golf, as he does not always put in a five day week.  He has a very sports minded family, everyone has their own favorite sport including his wife and three boys.  All favor a different sport.  His is triathalons, but is training now for an Iron Man race. 

To-day is card day, so must be on my way.  To-day we play out in the country, so on my way home I pass several farms that sell plants.  If it isn't raining, I hope to stop and get some new plants for my garden.

Cute Gardner

Such a sweet digi from Mami Doodles.  I tried to capture her planting the flowers with green grass, a fence, and sky beyond.  The sky has quite dark ridges showing in the photo, but looked totally blue when I added it.  The image is colored with copics.  The corrugated and embossed papers were from a Scrap Pack from DMD.  The other papers from my stash.  The edging was done with Provo Craft scissors.  I am going to enter this in the CDAC Midnight Madness Challenge MMSC104.  I have chosen the plain Sketch.

It is raining here now, but has been a great holiday weekend, with sun and much warmer.  Hope the rain stops so that people can set off there fireworks.   Managed to get some work done in my garden. Now, I guess I should get some work inside done; time to bring out the summer clothes and put away the winter ones.
