my son just finished his college baseball career and i wanted to thank his coaches. this is one attempt...don't know if i'm satisfied yet. their colors are green and gold. the gold dp has a subtle stripe that's hard to see in the photo.
one thing i did which i think turned out pretty cool was, i masked the 'champs' on the baseball jersey and hand printed in his team name. also, i tried to match his uniform as closely as possible by adding a green strip at the sleeve seam, a green stripe down the side of the pants, and making the socks and cap green.
thanks for looking!

What a great card. Love how you personalized it. I have this set and have had a hard time making cards with it. Will definately CASE this. And the coaches will love it.

You are the Queen of cutting images Deb!! Your glove just pops from this card and looks so real -- I agree that the coaches will be putting this one in their scrapbooks!!
