Today I made a card for one of the priests at my parish. He turns 80 this week, and is semi-retired. Among his many passions is golfing, so I thought this Squigglefly digi set by artist Joy Hall was perfect. It's called "Golf Day." I paired the images with a set of Squigglefly sentiments from Marlene S called "Golf Miracle."
Because I used a three part sentiment, I made a tri-fold card out of 5.5"x12" cardstock. The patterned paper was leftover. I colored my images (printing the golfer twice) with my trusty Copics, inked the edges and framed it in cardstock before popping it onto the first and second faces of my card.
On the inside, I used white cardstock to print the last part of "Golf Miracle," which reads:
"If it goes Straight, It's a Miracle!"
Nice touch for a Catholic priest, wouldn't you say?
Squigglefly offers a challenge each week, with free digis to random winners. Of course, in order to win a prize, you need to use a Squigglefly image, but have no fear, they offer a large amount of FREEBIES from which to choose!
This week's challenge is to use your two favorite colors in combination. Mine are BROWN and (anything) GREEN or blue. My card sports a mingling of shades of brown as well as green and blue (shh, that's three but who's counting).
What are your two favorite colors? Put them to use with the Squigglefly challenge, now through Sunday!!

Square Off with a New Squigglefly Challenge
Today I made a card for this week's challenge at Squigglefly. It is a 6x6 square card to match the challenge's theme of SQUARE-SHAPED CARDS.
I used some leftover patterned paper for the background. Then I colored up this awesome image from Squigglefly called "58 Impala" by artist Carmen Gamble.
I framed the image with black cardstock, which I also used to frame my birthday sentiment (I also used a negative piece of paper to frame my sentiment).
All that was left were the embellishments, which included Skittles, pearls. adhesive lace and a pretty green ribbon bow!
In the mood to make a square card? Use a Squigglefly image on it and play in the challenge for your chance to win free digis!
