My son's birthday card

This is the card I made for my son.  I knew there was a reason I wanted the Sportmania cartridge.  The card base is a modified z fold.  The golfer is cut in 4 layers: the shadow in cream, background in light brown, next layer in navy and the pants layer in green. 

The golf ball holds the card closed.  I punched it at 1 1/2" and then ran it through my cuttlebug with Swiss Dots.  Then I ran it through a second time, offsetting the dots.  You can see the detail below.

Looks almost like the real thing.  The sentiment was printed on cream paper and hidden behind the fold.
