Golf Card Instructions:
- Start off with a 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" white card.
- Trim a different piece of white card stock to 4" x 5 1/4"
- Using low tack tape, tape the bottom and top of your card horazontally leaving the centre blank about 2".
- Pick up some colour from your Evergreen Bough ink pad onto your blending brush. Blend that colour into the bottom of the untaped spot going half way up, leaving the top part white.
- Now using the Twisted Citron ink pad, pick up some of that colour onto your blending brush and blend that into the middle section of the untaped area and onto the Evergreen Bough you blended already.
- Using the blending brush again pick up some of the Squeezed Lemonade ink and apply that to the very top section.
- Place your stencil over the colourd section and tape it down so it doesn't move.
- Now lightly apply the colours in the same spots you already applied it to, just over top of the stencil this time. After, remove the tape and stencil from the cardstock.
- Die cut your letters with black card stock.
- Using a stamping platform or acrylic block line up your stamp and make sure your words fit.
- Now apply black ink onto your stamp and stamp that onto the colourd part of your cardstock.
- Lastly, apply your letters with acrylic glue and attatch your cardstock to your card base with foam tape. Now your card is done!
