Today we were asked to make cards for a new father and sports enthusiast recently diagnosed with a form of leukemia. For the entire story and to play along visit the tea party: MMTPT153 ~ JUST HIT THAT SMALL BALL! TRY HARD NOT TO FALL! by Mothermark at Splitcoaststampers
Stamped the bag image from SU On the Green on cream CS, then on Little Sizzles Leather Textured CS then paper pieced. Colored the clubs with Derwent pencils and added hardware highlights to the bag with gold gel pen. Computer generated the sentiment, then distressed and sponged the panels and the mats. Added the balls highlighted with CE and mounted on a PTI cream card with some Making Memories DP. Inside sentiment says "Hope that you're back into the swing soon."
Thank you so much for looking and have a peaceful day.

Wow!! That golf bag looks so real!! Your paper piecing is prefect and the added gold to the hardware, just finishes off the realistic look!! You've got the perfect sentiment too, very clever!!
