Another Country Club Bundle Card

David's golfing partner also has a birthday in May. David liked his birthday card so much he asked me to make one for his friend. I didn't want to make the same cards so I made a different version of a fold up card.

Happy Birthday - Country Club Bundle

My husband and son are both avid golfers. They both have birthdays in May so it was easy to decide to make cards using the Country Club Bundle and designer papers. I recently learned how to make a double easel card so I decided to use this occasion to make their cards. You make the card base in the normal way - I used Night of Navy cardstock for my card base. Then you attach the large portion of the second piece of cardstock to the front of the card base,  I used Daffodil Delight as my second cardstock.

  

This is the view when the card is opened.

This is the view of the inside fold.

To make this card you will need the following materials:

Cardstock

    Night of Navy: 4.25" x 11.0" scored at 5.50"

    Daffodil Delight: 4.0" x 10.50" scored at 5.25" and 7.75"

    Whisper White: 

        insert for card 4.0" x 5.25"

        various size pieces to die cut the golfer, golf ball, and two different sentiments.

Country Club Designer Series Paper:

    Two small pieces 3.75" x 2.25" of two different papers 

    One large paper cut to 3.75" x 5.0"

    One segment of the printed paper with trees and green 

Country Club Bundle - stamp set and dies

Country Club Wooden Embellishments - flag pole

    Soft Suede

    

Markers:

This is the side view of the card.

I am sorry to learn that the Country Club Bundle and Designer Series Papers are retiring.  I plan on buying lots of this paper to make golf related cards in the future.

Buy these materials before they disappear!

Susan Schultz Introduction

Here is a picture of my wonderful family.  My husband, David and I have been married for 38 years and we are still very much in love.  Our son, Will just turned 26 and he is a graduate student at University of California, Santa Barbara working on a Ph.D. in Astrophysics.

I have recently retired as a Science Researcher (Biology and Chemistry) from Stanford University. David, a particle physicist has also retired after 35 years at the Stanford Linear Accelerator. We have moved into our dream house on the northern coast of California in a small community called The Sea Ranch. We are located about 3.5 hours north of San Francisco off of Route 1.

 

         We get to see amazing sunsets daily

This is the view from our front porch

One of the rooms of our new house was originally constructed to be a double office but since we are both retired now, I have taken it over as my crafting room.  I'm looking forward to spending a lot more time designing and creating cards.

I have been an avid scrapbooker for many years and made countless scrapbooks documenting Will's school years, Jazz Band competitions, sport activities (soccer, badminton, and fencing) and his accomplishments leading to becoming an Eagle Scout in high school. Honestly, after he graduated from high school I was burned out on scrapbooking. During a ladies retreat, some close friends introduced me to card making.  It was such a joy to create and complete a beautiful card in 15 to 30 minutes versus the weeks or months to complete a scrapbook! While I was working full time, card making allowed me to relax and use my creative energy. Now that I've retired I look forward to spending lots more time creating and sharing homemade cards.

I'll be using this blog site to post new card designs, share the new Stampin' Up catalogs, keep you up to date on special sales, and invite you to post your creations. I hope you will visit my site often.

Happy Stamping!
