Winter and Baseball

 

 Did you know the baseball season officially started on Thursday April 1, 2021?  I sure didn't but I heard it on the news.  I have nephews who love baseball.  I have a nephew who posted the saying on the tag on the last official date of winter.  I had nephew thought about it before!

To create this card I used A Colorful Life Designs Stencil called Overlapping Lines.  I applied green ink through the lines with a blending brush on off white cardstock.   I  did the same on a smaller scrap of off white card stock.   Then I stamped Baseball in Motion with dark brown pigment ink.  I used a stamping platform  and repeated until I was pleased with the depth of color.  I covered it with clear embossing powder and heat embossed.    I sponged brown ink around the edges.

To create the tag I stamped a baseball mitt from Swing for the Fences with a lighter brown ink.  The verse was also stamped with dark brown pigment ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I used a die to cut out the tag.  I cut a second one of dark brown card stock.  I cut that die cut in half and adhered the two halves  to frame the tag.

Its a great card to celebrate the beginning of the baseball season.
