This is NOT what you think!! We are NOT making golf cards!! (Although that COULD be fun …)
Actually, the challenge is to make a popped up frame or “hole” as one of our card layers. One hole … two holes … three holes … four holes … stack the images on top of the hole or stamp ‘em underneath. There are SOOO many possibilities with this one. One hint I CAN give you to help you align your “holes” … punch whatever shape you are going to use out of a piece of scrap paper and place it where you want your “hole” (or holes) to be on your cardstock layer, using removable adhesive. Then use your punched images as a guide to punch out the “holes” on your card layer. I certainly hope that makes sense, ‘cause I think I am even confusing myself!!
(Sorry about the not-as-good photos ... my camera battery died so I had to use my cell phone camera!! YIKES!!)
UPDATE: I finally got my camera battery charged, so I retook the photos - 'cept for the "Life is Beautiful" one ... the one from my phone actually turned out BETTER than the one from my camera ... go figure!

Wendy your cell phone pics are better than some camera pics I've seen. Your cards are amazing. I can't wait to play this challenge tomorrow. I've been coloring images today so I'll see what I can put a hole or two in. Thanks Wendy.

Oh, brilliant! I know how to make this a golf card. It's the perfect opportunity to use my frame die-cut. I followed Wendy's suggestion a little in reverse; that is, I hunted through my images to find one appropriate for the opening in my frame. Yup, the tail wagged the dog here :-} But the tail stayed on subject because; well, here's the card and you decide: The Claret Jug? by splicedcenterstamp - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
At first I thought this was a golf challenge in honor of the Ryder Cup, Wendy - have to admit, I'm glad it's not, no golfing stamps! Thanks for a fun challenge, here's today's card: Fabric Peony
Wendy, I put all three of your samples into my favorites today!! Gorgeous work and a great challenge. I have to go to work so may not get to play, but will try to check in later to see what fabulous creations everyone else is inspired to make today.

I so enjoyed making my first card for your challenge, Wendy, that I decided to do another one...a little more involved this time. Thanks for helping me build my holiday card stash!
