Cardinals Baseball Birthday Card

Oh my it has been forever since I posted on here. Actually haven’t made a ton of cards this year….personal life went crazy and had no free time. But trying to get into a new routine that includes crafting time! So welcome back!

I needed a Cardinal Baseball themed birthday card. I found the image on the internet and used sketch #1 from the Feb Card Sketch Challenge at Scrapbook.com as my inspiration. I also used KatieJo’s version of the sketch…I like how she had little hearts in the background so I used circles to look like confetti….well that was my plan anyways!

SUPPLIES:
Cardstock: Bazzill (Admiral, Bazzill Red, White)
Image: internet
Accents/Tools: Xyron X, computer, Your Next Stamp (Confetti Die)

Sport Themed Valentines

Had some customers want sport themed Valentine’s for their kiddos. I made 3 different ones with this style. One of the ladies wanted 3 sports (soccer, football and basketball) for her kids. So I made the basketball and football different so all the kids have their own individual card.

I used a sketch but not sure whose sketch it is as it was a challenge on Scrapbook.com.

CHALLENGES:
1) Feb Card Sketch Challenge @ Scrapbook.com – sketch #3

I used Sketch Saturday#254 as my inspiration.

Wednesday Rewind Challenge #8

If you have not checked out this challenge it is a MUST! I love her cards and love sketch challenges so this was a win/win for me!

She will post a card she has done in the past and then she does a new version of it and so do we!

This month the card stumped me as I’m not a big ribbon user the way it was used on this card. But I was determined to play. So glad I did cause it made me think outside the “card” and I really like how this came out.

Go here to see the card that I “lifted”.

Here is my version:

Can you see the sketch but see how I made it mine! I love it!! Thank you Tarynne for the inspiration!

CHALLENGES:
