Batter Up

This is my entry for the Twisted Thursday challenge over at The Outlawz. The twist this week was to make a sports theme card.


As soon as I saw the challenge, I knew what images I would use. This is actually 3 images from Doodle Pantry's Baseball set. Isn't it adorable? This was very easy to add all 3 images to a Microsoft Word file and size and arrange them the way I wanted them and then print it out. The image was colored with Copic markers (Y35, Y38,Y04, Y08, E35, E39, R24, R27, B95 and B97). The baseballs are metal brads, but I removed the prongs and used a pop dot to secure them to the card. I stamped a "D" and a "P" on the uniforms of the birds with a tiny alphabet stamp set from Personal Stamp Exchange.

  7. Oh, now this is just adorable!! Birds playing baseball, what a cute idea. Love those baseballs along the top, another cute idea. Your coloring is amazing, as usual. I am just smitten by these images from Doodle Pantry. I popped over there and signed up. I guess you inspired me! LOL Adorable cute card, and I do know what it feels like to make a home run....and it feels GREAT!! So, I love that sentiment, also. TFS.
