Play Ball with Cardz 4 Guyz # 304

Sep 6, 2022 | Cardz 4 Guyz, Try Stampin on Tuesday | 1 comment

Welcome to the newest Cardz 4 Guyz two-week challenge! Our host for # 304, Helen, chose sports and hobbies for the theme. Since my husband and I have been watching MLB (Major League Baseball) pretty much daily, I thought I just needed to go with that. When you finish here, I hope you will visit the challenge site to see the creations from the rest of the design team.

Here’s my card:

Even though I missed the submission deadline, I found the layout for this card on Try Stamping on Tuesday, #570:

What I Did:

The Poppy Parade base measures 4-1/4 by 11 inches, scored at 5-1/2 inches to create a tent fold.
Both pieces of the DSP (designer series paper) come from the Hey Sports Fan pack. The Night of Navy pattern measures 4-1/8 by 5-3/8 inches, which I outlined using a Night of Navy marker. The yellow DSP piece measures 3-1/2 by 5 inches. I outlined that paper using the Poppy Parade marker.
I also trimmed a piece of coordinating DSP to 6 inches by 2-1/2 inches for the envelope flap. Then, I punched a one-inch circle from a coordinating DSP for the envelope seal.
The rest of the pieces also come from the Hey Sports Fan DSP, and I fussy cut them to replicate the challenge layout. I outlined the three on the bottom using my Crushed Curry marker.
Next, I added dimensionals to the back of the four pieces. Before adhering the large top piece, I tied a piece of baker’s twine around the connecting part and tied it in a square knot.
After adhering the pieces down, I added the Night of Navy and yellow stars.
I used some stamps from the past Paper Pumpkin kit, Play Ball, for the inside of the card.
With that, I’d finished this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal set.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today!

Have a Peachy Day!
