Golf Gus - 70th Birthday Card

Hello Blogging Buddies
I am taking a few days off work this week and we are visiting our caravan in Wales we arrived here a couple of hours ago, so no card making but I hope to manage to colour in some images, hopefully on the decking in the shade, maybe even with a G&T mmm... weather is supposed to be ok so fingers crossed.  We are also hoping to do some fell walking which we love and maybe even Snowdon on Tuesday if the weather is OK. 

So onto my card, it was my brother-in-laws 70th birthday this week and he loves golf to who else to colour up but Golf Gus.  This is a large 8" card, and the papers are from Betsy Beier, called Vintage Golf.

The two golf embellishments are from Ebay and are buttons. 

This is the inside - a huge 70 and more of the paper and a sentiment with a mini Gus completes the card.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges.

Happy Birthday Jack

Good Morning,
I gave my blog a makeover - what do you thing?  It took me a few evenings and I have a few more grey hairs now... LOL. 

Anyway onto today's card, this is a card I made for my nephew's 18th Birthday, and what else could I use but Mo Manning, Video Boy. 

The stars are cut out on my CraftRobo and then heat embossed with translucent glitter.  The design for the stars came from Bird's Cards - this lady is just so generous with her time and the files she uploads for anyone with a cutting machine to use for free.  There are some super designs on her site. The 18 and Jack I did myself.

Shhh.... I have a secret

Hello Everyone
What a wet day here... such a shame for the Jubilee weekend, tomorrow is forecast dry so looking forward to a barbeque with family who are coming to join us. 

My step-son proposed to his girlfriend last weekend and asked me to making an exploding box to present the ring in.  They went to our caravan in Wales (which is where we are now) and took her out to see the sun set to a little outcrop overlooking the sea, with a bottle of champagne and gave her the box. 

It was a bit of rush job as he only gave me a couple of days notice... men what are they like.

These are not the colours I would have chosen, but the the favourite colours of Phil's girlfriend, Michelle, regular followers might remember I made her a Betty Boop card recently using the same colour scheme and same flowers.  The black stones are swarovski crystals no less, I bought a lot last year to decorate some shoes and had these left, they sparkle and catch the light so well. 

I designed the square heart shape myself on my CraftRobo - helped make it a bit quicker. 

She of course said yes :). 

Hope you enjoy my box. 

Hugs
