10 Pin Bowling Scallop Corner Stacker TopperCompleted by Pamela Horton The whispering Platypus

I made a female card as above and a universal card as the next photograph. This design not only lends itself to the obvious sport, but also as an incentive, good luck, or a, well done, relating to any occasion, retirement from work, next you will be joining us at bowls, sentiment and even to the passing of a bowling friend, or a retirement of a bowling friend or mate.

A very simple quick easy step by step card. I printed the sheet twice using Crafty Bob's 200gsm matte card

I noticed the numbers for 2 and 3 should be changed, however it is very obvious which size goes next, when you look at the sizing on the "how to" little diagram, that is so helpfully supplied with the sheet.

My first card starts with a large white main card 30cm x 14.5 cm. I made up the topper as follows. I cut out all the elements, and followed the diagram. I then made a tan coloured backing sheet, 14.4 x 14cm, in exactly the same shade as the large bowling ball.

The next backing sheet is a cream card 13x 13cm. I mounted the completed topper onto the cream card with double sided tape and then this using padded tape onto the tan card. I then used an orange and white narrow check ribbon to wrap around these items before using D.S Tape to attach them to the white card. I slip the extra ribbon under the horizontal ribbon to tie a bow and add some extra tails. an easy card completed.

The second card is completed exactly the same except the main card is black, 30cm x 15cm, and there is no extra backing sheets, and I just used the padded tape to add one of the small elements, and some extra tan card to highlight the insert.

I also used the other spare element to make a gift card, in this case to go with the new Bowling Bag Gift.

This design is from Carol Ann Clarke, and is so easy.

Thank You Carol
