I found this image of a baseball bat and ball on 'A Child's Year' and imported it onto a card canvas in Design Space. Using the x and y axis measurements, I arranged the duplicated images in a pleasing pattern. Choosing a copper metallic marker, I sent the mat through the Explore. Cool!
I added a sentiment from the 'Father's Day Set' and cut it in copper metallic paper from my stash. My card needed a splash of color and I found this vintage baseball postcard in the Graphic45 Good Ol' Sports stack and added 3 nail heads. (They are copper colored - honestly! I have no idea why they didn't photograph that way.)
The challenge on the FCCB this week is to Celebrate Dad. The DT did a great job!
The challenge at BBTB2 is also a Father's Day theme. Inspiring!
AND Mary at CardzTV is also featuring a challenge for Father's Day. Pop over and take a look here!
