Retirement Card & Contest

So my boss is retiring, and today was the last day I'd see him...I had already made a ginormous card for him for everyone to sign (12x12 using 12x24 card stock)



But I wanted to make him a card just from me to thank him for being such a great boss for all these years..... And since I'd already used golf, I wanted to do something different...so I made him this card.. I really like this stamp set, and it seemed like a fun idea...







I don't have a lot of retirement stamps - so I hand wrote the sentiment - since he has to make a lot of decisions at work, hopefully the most difficult decision he'll have to make in retirement is choosing a cocktail! I will definitely miss him - but I'm sure he'll love retirement!

Supplies:
Cheers card: DCWV neutrals paper stack, stamps by stampin up, colored with Copics
Golf card: 12x24 paper, everyday paper dolls cricut cartridge

So looking at my Flipboard app tonight I noticed there was a retirement card challenge - so I'm entering this card into http://celebratetheoccasion.blogspot.com/ challenge!
