A Par-fect Birthday!

Good morning everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

I wanted to pop in today and share a birthday card with you... 
my Stepfather loves to golf so I made this for him! :)
It features the fun Golfing Guy from Bugaboo Stamps... he's colored with Copics, the sentiment is computer generated and the paper is from Pebbles. For the background I used the Burlap stencil from Tim Holtz and sponged on some Faded Jeans DI, for the dots I used the Swiss Dots stencil from MFT and sponged it with VersaMark ink and then embossed them with silver embossing powder. I cut the button out with a MFT die and embossed it with 2 coats of  the same silver EP. I used a MFT die for the Fishtail Flag, a EK Sucsess punch for the corners and the edges have been distressed with Faded Jeans ink... to finish it up I added a little shimmer to the golf clubs with the Wink of Stella pen.  

Well, that's all for now... enjoy your day and thanks so much for stopping by!
