Hey Batter, Batter!!!!

Hey Batter, Batter!!! If you are/were a baseball/softball player I am sure you remeber mumbling these words at some point! I know I did!! This card was made for my Nephew, Jayden, who is turning 4. I just LOVE The Greeting Farm stamps and have yet to use this cutie (Batter Ian) so when I started thinking on what type of card I was going to make for my nephew this year, this one quickly came to mind. I wanted to try a new technique , paper piercing, which I have never tried before. Although I have seen it done on several cards on various posts,I have never attempted it. I must say it was fairly simple and I do like the results! I stamped Batter Ian on kraft cardstock and colored him with copics. The Ovals were cut out using Spellbinder Nesties Classic Ovals. I tend to notice when I make Male cards, I like to go the simpler route.Thank you so much for stopping by naking a look at me card! Have a Wonderful Day!!!

THANK YOU'S TGF STYLE.....

Hello!!! I made these two THANK YOU cards to give to my Daughter, Makayla's Cross Country Coaches along with a Starbucks Gift Card. I wanted them to know how much I appriciated them. They are both amazing women and amazing Coaches. My Daughter considers them "Family". I am really loving coloring on kraft paper..it is my new obsession.. :) I used Cheeky Rockabilly from The Greeting Farm and colored her in using copic markers. I used matching cardstock to creat a background. Cut out the polka dot paper using Nesties. Thank you for stoping by and taking a look.. Have a WONDERFUL Day!! Brandy
