Happy Monday! It’s VBS week so I doubt I’ll have too much time for stamping/blogging this week! I did have a fun time over the weekend making this vintage card for Sugar Creek Hollow’s challenge 21, which is all about sports. I rummaged around in my digi image file and found some old baseball card images, I believe from the Graphics Fairy, to make my creation:
I pulled out some Basic Grey scraps, printed off a cool vintage baseball cap image from the net, and stamped some miscellaneous Americana images, as I really have NO sports stamps:
and I even made a little baseball player chipboard piece, printing him on some DP and mounting him on three pieces of cardboard, coloring the edges with a black marker:
Oh boy, this was fun to make….a bit time-consuming to figure out what to put where, but it’s nice to have a masculine card on hand for a birthday!
Enjoy your day and be sure to come back tomorrow to see the ColourQ challenge!!!
You do vintage SO well! I love everything about this masculine beauty! Speaking of beauty - I love the photo of Cassidy - so sweet!
