Happy Birthday-Send A Smile 4 Kids

 

This month at Send A Smile 4 Kids we are celebrating all things sports related. I have to admit, that I don't make too many sports related cards, so I took to Pinterest for inspiration. I started with an A2 panel of navy cardstock that I used to die cut the sentiment using a die from Blitsy. I then attached the panel directly to my card. I cut down a smaller white panel, and using a plate from my kitchen, I traced the circle onto the panel. Before I cut it into the baseball shape, I pierced the stitching lines into it using a piercing tool from my stash. I cut a 1" strip of red cardstock and created the details using the end of a heart die. I adhered them onto the white panel using liquid glue, trimmed off the overhang, and adhered the panel to the navy piece. I adhered my sentiment on the lower left side of the card and then added some bright yellow stars using a star die from my stash. It looks easy, but I had to throw 2 trials of this away before I got the dimensions correct. LOL. I finished the card off by adding some clear rhinestones from Recollections onto each of the stars. Thank you for stopping by my blog! Be sure to head over the Send A Smile 4 Kids blog and see what everyone else created this month!
