Love your golfer. I had the same experience with my husband, he was outside in our large garden, I stood with my girlfriend at the kitchen table looking over a cooking book when suddenly a large crash and my large sliding door window was hit by his golfbal, lucky for use we had safety door covering the sliding doors otherwise we were hit.!!

You see golfers take every opertunity to hit their ball.

I just learnt how to make a Distress Ink background so this challenge was perfect for me to put my new skills into use before I forgot them!! This style of card is totally out of my comfort zone so it was fun to try something new and different.

Here is my card: Distress Ink Collage
