Hi Everyone!
This week DRS Designs is sponsoring the sketch challenge over at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. The prize being offered is a $20.00 gift certificate to the DRS Designs Store! They have so may great stamps to choose from, that I know that you will want to play along with us this week :)
I took this opportunity to make a card for a friend who has a birthday coming up at the end of this month. Here is the sketch I used:
And this is my take on it. Our friend is a golfer (although with work and a child, I know he doesn't get out as much as he would like to...Isn't that always the case?) so I used the Silhouette Male Golfer along with the GOLF Frustration Greeting for a bit of humor. I'm pretty sure he will be able to relate!
The Easy Grass Background always pairs well with so many stamps and the twine is a good masculine element on a guy card.
Thanks for dropping by and I hope you can make time to play along at the Midnight Madness Challenge for your chance at a $20.00 DRS Designs gift certificate :) Speaking of which, the new releases are here!!!

This is fantastic Karin! I love how you used the silhouette gofer and the golf frustration greeting together. I still have yet to use that greeting. I might have to case that idea--hope you don't mind!?!?!?
