Happy Golfing Birthday


It was our best friend Ian's birthday today...I am now safe to post his card as I know he has received it.
The papers are DCWV the waistcoat stamp is one a friend lent me and the golfing stickers are some I found in the new craft shop the other weekend.
This is rather a busy card and there is a lot going on but I think Ian was happy with it!!

I received a text from him which said "if I was as good at golf as you are at card making I would be a happy man" which I thought was very sweet!!!
Thanks for looking Sue :o)

Note Tracy has quite rightly pointed out that the papers are Dovecraft not DCWV.
Oh dear these senior moments are getting more frequent!!!!

Hi Suzanne

your card is lovely, very effective and I am sure your friend loved it also, just one point the papers are actually Dovecrafts Masculine Range, not DCWV.
