Swingin’ Through Retirement! Card by Tasha

 Happy Friday Art Impressions friends!

Tasha here sharing a fun golf-themed card created with the new 6080-Birdie Betty Stamp Set and the 6101-Golf Paper Pack.

I started by stamping Betty and her golf bag with black ink, cutting them out with the included dies, and coloring them up. One of my favorite things about Art Impressions is how cute the outfits always are; I had so much fun giving Betty a purple and white look with pops of pink on her shoes and glasses. Honestly, I’d love to have an outfit like this for a day on the golf course!

To build the card, I layered Betty and her bag over a patterned paper from the Golf Pack; I love the little golf scene design. 

For the sentiment, I stamped “Swingin’ Through Retirement” and die-cut it with a circle, then added a small purple heart to tie in with her outfit. A mix of green, tan, and plaid layers finished everything off with that classic golf vibe.

Hope you enjoyed today's project and are having a wonderful day!

Time to Par Tee! Card by Tasha

Happy Friday Art Impressions friends!

Tasha here sharing a new card inspired by the current Art Impressions Sports & Leisure Challenge. For this project, I used the 4902-Par-Tee Golfers Set and the 5062-Rounded Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Dies to create a fun golf-themed design.

I stamped the golfer lady with black ink and colored her outfit in pink Copic shades; perfect for a sunny day at the country club! The background features fluffy stenciled clouds and green grass (my favorite combo to make!). To frame the scene, I layered white and pink cardstock with plaid paper and added a pop of gold glitter.

To finish the card, I stamped “Let’s...Par Tee!” in pink ink and die-cut it with a rounded rectangle before popping it up with foam tape. I also attached two clear rhinestones to her skirt for extra sparkle. Such a fun way to celebrate the challenge theme!

I hope you enjoyed today's card and will join in the Sports & Leisure Challenge!

Gordon Golfer Birthday by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing another card from the raffle basket my husband and I put together.  We added 6 of my cards, a G.C. to a sporting goods store and box of Titleist golf balls.

I used a wonderful set from Art Imrpessions called

4325 – Gordon Golfer Set

Ai has so many wonderful GOLF themed stamps.  If you have some golfers in your life you need to pick some up!

This is the inside of my card with the fun verse the set comes with.

This is what our basket looked like...

I have to be honest...I peeked in the bag at the benefit because I was nervous no one would put any tickets in to win our basket.  I needn't have worried...there were tons!

Live Life and GOLF!! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing the first of several golf cards that I made for a benefit.  My husband's friend is an avid golfer and is battling cancer.  There is a benefit for him coming up and we're donating a raffle basket with some Titleist balls, a gift card for a local sporting goods store and some golf themed cards that I made.

This one was made using Art Impressions fun set called

4902 – Par-Tee Golfers Set

It's from the Work and Play line.

I hope whoever wins our basket knows just

the right golfer that will love this card!

On the inside I used a verse from another

Ai set called 4572 – Throttle Spinner

from the Spinners line.

Baby Boy Congratulations! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans! 

Today I'm sharing a card that my friend requested. 

She has a brand new nephew and wanted to congratulate her brother and sister-in-law. Her brother is a big Yankee fan.  

M3189 – Baby Boy Front and Back

The #2 has a double meaning...Mike's favorite player was Derek Jeter who was number 2.  Tony is also Mike's second child.

The verses on the inside came from these sets.

4289 – Hats Off Set

4509 – Teddy Note-able

Here's his cute little behind. 

I added some pinstripes to his hat and jersey so he looked like a real Yankee.

Time to PAR-TEE!! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!  

Today I'm sharing one of the super new releases from Art Impressions.  The set I've chosen for today is the #4902 Par-Tee Golfers Set.

I love that this set is great for men or women!

Even if you don't know a golfer these are such fun images and verses.

Zoom Zoom!!

The cute verse is on the inside.

I think it's the golfer's equivalent to "The fish was THIS big" stories!

Here's the fun gal!

And the VERY funny verse on the inside that I made look like the flag in the hole.
