Another card made for a friend for her grandson who plays baseball and is turning 12 - I bet you could tell that by looking at my card!?!
I printed a free image on the internet of the baseball field for the background. I rubbed a brown inkpad over the die cut fence from Papertrey Ink and layered it over the background with foam strips. I stamped the die cut bat, ball and mitt and adhered them over the fence, as well as the die cut letters and sentiment. I added the die cut numbers above the fence.
Instead of a folding card - I adhered a die cut easel to the back so it can be stood up on shelf or bureau.
