Welcome to the ICS Blog Hop for March! This month’s theme is “One Stamp Set, So Many Uses” and we’re featuring three cards of varying difficulty using the same stamp set. I’ve used the Clubhouse Bundle and other products from the Country Club Suite to create my three cards.

Here’s what I did:

I used Whisper White note cards for all three card bases.

For card #1:

• stamped the sentiment and the ball/tee image in Garden Green ink onto the front of the card base

For card #2:

• stamped the sentiment in Garden Green ink onto a Whisper White card stock (CS) layer
• stamped the sentiment and the ball image in Garden Green ink onto a scrap of Whisper White CS, then die cut them, and adhered them onto the same layer
• glued that layer onto a Garden Green CS layer, then glued a strip of Country Club Designer Series Paper (DSP) on the left side and tied a piece of Poppy Parade twine around it
• glued the whole thing onto the front of the card base

For card #3:

• stamped the sentiment in Garden Green ink twice onto a scrap of Whisper White CS, then die cut them with two different dies
• die cut 5 clumps of grass from a scrap of Garden Green CS, a tee from a scrap of Crushed Curry CS, and a large golf ball from a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
• heat embossed the large golf ball in clear to make it shiny
• embossed a layer of Poppy Parade CS using the Absolutely Argyle 3D Embossing Folder, then glued it onto a layer of Garden Green CS
• glued a piece of DSP onto the Poppy Parade CS layer
• adhered the die cut ball, tee, and grass clumps onto a panel of Whisper White CS, some glued and some with dimensionals, then glued that onto the other layers
• glued the crest shape sentiment onto the Poppy Parade CS layer, and adhered the banner sentiment over it using dimensionals
• tied a piece of Garden Green twine around the stack of layers, then glued them onto the front of the card base
