Golfing Dennis reaches the big 70


Commission request for a Golfing themed card, for a special husbands Birthday.

Using the Cricut Paperdolls and Everyday Cartridges, I selected initially the golfing image and clothing. The body was cut at 3.5 inches high. A white marker was used to create the thin layer of hair.

The golf clubs were created using narrow rectangles which were welded together using the Cricut Gypsy device prior to cutting.

 The green back ground was also created using the Cricut Gypsy, using a slanted number '0' from the Mickey Font Cartridge  I 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 numbers 18 were printed and  fixed to the flag top and fixed to a strip of black card to create a flag pole.

Numerous golf balls were cut and the golf bag was cut from various coloured of card layered and matted up to create detail, two golf balls were fixed poking out the top of the golf bag.

Finally a personalised message was printed and fixed to the centre of the card.

Happy 70th Birthday wishes to Dennis.
