Golf Scene Father’s Day Card

(inside: You’re Tee-rific!)

This post is a little late, but…

I found this digital paper of a water colored golf scene and thought it would make a nice Father’s Day card front.

The digital paper was from a file called Golf Clipart Bundle by LunaSkyeFinds that I purchased on Etsy.

To jazz it up a bit, I cut the panel with the Die-Namics “Framed Greetings Cover-up” die (discontinued?) from My Favorite Things, making sure to keep all the cut out pieces along with the frame so the pieces could be re-inserted back into the holes. I cut a few more of the frames from white card stock as well and stacked them with the printed frame piece on top. I then filled in the “holes” with the cut out pieces.

I decided to leave the front as is with no greeting; it’s on the inside…

The pop-up golf ball greeting panel was made with a circle die and a dots embossing folder (debossed side) for the dimples. The greeting was from a die set that included the shadow and words. The pop-up mechanism behind the ball was created with a die from the “Mini Pops Pop-up” set (#2246) from Karen Burniston. The stamp is from the “On the Links” set from Papertrey Ink (retired?). GKD Christmas Pine card stock and ink along with white were also used. I left lots of room for a handwritten message.

By using the layered cover die on the front and the pop-up element on the inside, I was able to make a simple card design a bit more interesting.

Sadly, I made this card for my dad, and while he did see it, he passed away the day before Father’s Day. It was sudden and unexpected, and he will truly be missed.

Thanks for checking out my card project.

  4. What an amazing card. I really like how you did the front. I’m so sorry about your dad, but at least he did get to see the card and knew what a lot of love went into making it.

  6. Such a beautiful card! You are always so thoughtful, choosing to make cards that are an accurate reflection of the person you are making them for. Your dad would have been impressed with the care and effort you put into card-making as well as everything you do for others. So sorry for your loss, Lisa. Thanks for posting about him and this card.
