Happy 80th Birthday


Today I'm sharing a card with you which I made recently for an order, for a gentleman who was turning 80 the only criteria I was given that he loves his golf and tries to play at least two rounds per week and he has a wonderful sense of humour. 

As soon as I was told this I thought of Bugaboo images and Gus on the golf green, but I felt that the front of the card has to be a little bit more elegant due to the age of guests at the party.

Challenges I'm Entering:
Embossing


Card Recipe:


1. Base: White French Linen
2. Coloured Card: Navy Blue by Kaisercraft

3. Image: Gus Golf by Bugaboo Images

4. Colour Medium: Copics and a black and silver embossing pen.

5. Tools Used:

6. Glossy Accents: For Gus's Glasses

7. Dies Used:
  

Frame = Couture Creations Vintage Sign
Numbers = Ali Express
Circles = Spellbinders Classic Large Circles and Tear Drop Circles

8. Embellishments: 80th I love these numbers.
Silver metal corners from my stash.
Silver buckle, brads and navy blue ribbon from my stash.


9. Embossing folder: From Ali Express and Swiss Dots for the golf balls. 


10. Inside the card. 
Using up my scrap paper which works perfectly with Gus's vest.
The sentiment is PC generated.
