A Round With Teddy Bo

Good Morning

My card for today is one I have made for Fathers Day, using the lovely Teddy Bo. I couldn't resist making a penny slider.


I've taken 2 photos to show how the golf ball moves around the card.


Teddy Bo is coloured with pencils. The backing paper is printed from Joanna Sheen's house mouse cd-rom. The golf ball is made using a circular die, which I then added dimples to using an embossing tool. The grass is cut with a Martha Stewart punch. The sentiment was created using the Krystal Tips alphabet stamps from Dimension Fourth, and then layered onto a hexagonal die-cut mat. Whilst the wording looks a bit crooked in the photo, it is in fact perfectly straight. It's a bit of a mystery to me the way photographs can distort cards!

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Cards For Men Someone Special

Crafts And Me Anything Goes

The CD Sunday Challenge Die-Cutting

Teddy Bo Challenge Just Teddy Bo

One Stitch At A Time Anything Goes

Such a cool idea to make this into a penny slider card, I may have to CASE your idea for my FIL's card as he is mad on golf.

Many thanks for joining in with our Anything Goes challenge over at OSAAT
