Using the Cricut Paper dolls and Every day Cartridges , I selected initially the golfing images. All the bodies were cut at 3.5 inches height and each character dressed accordingly.
The golf clubs were created using narrow rectangles which were welded together using the Cricut Gypsy device.
Apparently the man who was retiring throws his clubs around when he doesn't play well hence why the juggling of golf clubs above his head and the grumpy face.
The green back ground was also created using the Cricut Gypsy, using a slanted number '0' from the Mickey Font Cartridge created the hole section and the top grass section was welded to the rectangle base shape. Fine grade sand paper was fixed to the base card and the green section fixed over using 1mm 3d foam pads to create a Bunker effect.
The phrase missed was printed and cut into a flag top and fixed to a strip of grey card to create a flag pole.
The ladies 60th birthday golfer card was created in a similar way but this time the bunkers created were using the numbers '60' , again slanted. As there were no female golf clothes on the Cricut cartridges I modified other clothing on the cartridge to match what lady Golfer's wear.
Finally the last card was created using the accessories on the cartridge, the golf bag, ball and the small Tee.
Lets hope the joint 60th birthdays and retirement celebration all went of well.
