Here is another stamp sold individually in the "A la CARTE" section of the Idea Book & Catalog. These stamps can be found on pages 18-20 and are all under $10! This one is called "On The Green". I think you probably would agree with me when I say that just about everyone either has a golfer in the family or is associated somehow with a golfer. As for myself, my son played on the high school team, my dad at the age of 75 still plays and my brother is obsessed with golf. As for myself, even though I played sports all through my high school and college years......I stink at golf!

I inked the image with "Garden Green" ink and colored the golfer with a "Stampin' Write Marker" in "Soft Suede" and stamped on a "Top Note Die". I stamped the image a second time with "Real Red" and cut out two of the words, sponged the edges, and adhered them with "Stampin' Dimensionals".

The golf balls were created with the "1" Circle Punch" and then the "Big Shot" and the "Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder". I then sponged the edges and the raised dots with "River Rock" to dirty them up a little. I hand-made the flag that I incorporated a sentiment from "Teeny Tiny Wishes" inked in "Whisper White Classic Ink". The rectangle is "River Rock" cardstock and I used the "Square Lattice Impressions Folder" for the embossing. The background layer is "Real Red" cardstock.
