Baseball Birthday

 Greetings and well wishes for everyone. I have a birthday guy card with a baseball theme to share. Here in the Houston area, everyone is excited that our Astros team is leading the American League West and headed to the play-offs this week. This week one of my nephews has his birthday and he's a baseball fan.
Supplies Used:
The Paper Shelter pre-colored digital image Number One Hot Dog
Springhill Digital card for image and 6x6 card base
Carta Bella Baseball designer papers
Brown textured Bazzill card and red paper scraps
Technique Junkies and Creative Visions sentiment stamps
Versafine and MFT inks
Clear embossing powder
Circle and label punches
Spellbinders Label die
Spellbinders 6x6 and 5x7 Matting Basics dies
Star stickers and enamel dots
Baker's twine
I also used one of Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2's current challenge sketches (#239) for my layout design. I flipped the sketch horizontally to better accommodate my image and papers.
I wrote a little poem for the inside sentiment...
More Baseball paper on back and a stamped and punched siggie.
Close-ups of the front sentiments' heat-embossing...
And a final view. Thanks for visiting today!

MY CHALLENGE PLAYLIST:
2 ON FRONT, 1 ON BACK
Heat Embossing
Baker's Twine
