Baseball Fan

Hello Friends

Today I am making a fun card for those baseball fans especially since the season is getting close to the World Series!!  I am using several dies All Stars with Shadow, Baseball Batter Silhouettes, and Baseball Glove, Bat and Ball.


Design Steps:

1.  Use the following dies All Stars with Shadow, Baseball Batter Silhouettes, and Baseball Glove, Bat and Ball:  cut out these colors of card stock: black, dark brown, white, red, navy, and kraft.  I made the home plate just by drawing it and free hand cutting.  I inked the home plate and the glove
2.  Use a cream colored A2 base card, cut a navy piece 4 x 5 1/4 and a DP woodgrain 3 7/8 x 5 1/8
3.  Glue the navy to the cream card base and then add the woodgrain
4.  Glue the Home Plate just slightly above center.  Pop up All Stars
5.  Pop up the glove and ball and then glue flat the silhouette ball player.  Ink the edges of the card base
6.  Add a few stars and your card is complete
