My Uncle Mike is a baseball fan, specifically the Bluejays of course because he grew up in Toronto, so I took out my Spellbinders Game Day Collection to make his birthday card.
I decided to make his age the number on the jersey and added a second white stripe to the sleeves with my white gel pen.
To create the background, I took the Sports Talk embossing folder and spritzed it with some Frozen Fog distress mica stain and ran it through my machine using some white cardstock. I love the shimmer it gives! Then, I took my distressing tool and roughed up the edges a bit. I set the backdrop on a kraft coloured card base and mounted my baseball elements with some foam squares.
