A card for MMTPT771 for a man who is struggling with cancer and has a 79th birthday coming up. He loves golf, and I have had an old wood mount stamp here for a long time, and it has never before seen ink. I just discovered it is a Stampin' up stamp. This week's sketch challenge was perfect, for the 'all in one' stamp. I distressed the patterned paper with an emory board, and the edges with a scissor. Little paper diamonds, with some very old brads from my stash, and a die cut sentiment.

Turns out you were saving that fabulous stamp for just the right occasion -- Nick's birthday. It works beautifully in this sketch and you executed the sketch beautifully. Love the distressing on the base layer -- adds a ton of interest. Great card.
