drum roll..........winner is:   SHELLY  from My Paper Love. Congratulations Shelly!! Please email me at jskoning@msn.com with your address so I can get this out in the mail to you:) Please put "winner" in the subject box. Thanks!

I also would like to share a card that I made for a couple challenges. For one of the challenges it was to make a Retirement card. The first thing that comes to mind....is the golf course for many!! So, I decided to keep that in mind when I made this card.

I made this cute shaped card from the Birthday Bash cartridge using my gypsy to weld the shape at 5.67 x 10.24. The circles are 4.90 x 4.34 and 4.41 x 3.82. The golf cart is cut from Everyday Paper Dolls at 2 3/4 (2x) white, then black. The black cut I used for the tires only. The golf bag is cut at 2" from Everyday Paper Dolls. The sentiment~congratulations is from My Craft Spot~Sweet Sentiments Set #2. The paper I used is from My Mind's Eye~Playful Posies.

Challenges:  1.) Celebrate the Occasion #15 Challenge~Retirement.
                     2.) My Craft Spot #9~Shaped card

Be sure to stop by on Saturday for the Memorial Day Blog hop and the Grillin' n Chillin' Bug Hop! You won't want to miss it:)

Thanks for visiting,
