Today’s Whisper White Note Card and Envelope were adorned for Father’s Day using the new Country Club Suite. It’s easy to line the envelope. Just trace around the open envelope for the shape, then cut it out using Paper Snips. Stick it in the envelope, far enough so the envelope adhesive still shows, and glue it in place.

When a new catalog comes out with lots of great new products, one thing I like to do is see how I can use the new stuff with the older stuff. Today’s card is an example of that. I used the Country Club Suite (from the new Spring Mini Catalog) with the On to Adventure stamp set (from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.) There’s a golfer image in the On to Adventure set, so it goes perfectly with the new golf themed suite. This is a perfect “congratulations on your retirement” card for someone who plans to play a lot of golf.

Today’s card is made with the Country Club Suite, but using colors that might not immediately come to mind when you think of this set. While golf is usually considered a masculine sport, there are girly girl golfers, too. I used Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam with a bit of clear Wink of Stella to froufrou it up a bit.

Here’s the Clubhouse bundle:

Here’s what I made:
It’s hard to get Wink of Stella to show up in a photo, but I really laid it on thick here, so it does show a little at just the right angle. The golf ball die both cuts and embosses the ball at the same time!

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

Cut using the Golf Club Dies:
- large golf ball from a scrap of Petal Pink CS
- tee from a scrap of Very Vanilla Thick CS
- grass from a scrap of Soft Sea Foam CS
- sentiment
Colored using a Stampin’ Blends Marker:
- 3 rhinestones in Dark Petal Pink (The color doesn’t show well in the photos. You can also use the Petal Pink Rhinestone Gems, but I wanted something smaller for this card.)

- Soft Sea Foam CS layer glued onto the front of the note card

Today’s project is a card I made for my recent demonstration at OnStage. I used the Clubhouse stamp set from the Country Club Suite. It’s so easy, especially if you have a Stamparatus! It’s just stamps, ink, and paper. That’s it! You can stamp the 3 golfers in the same color, or clean the stamp after each one and apply a different color of ink. Super simple! #simplestamping

Here’s what I made:
I stamped the golfer three times without reinking each time, so they got lighter as I went:
I used different colors of ink on this card:
