Sketch Challenge 789
Alphabet Challenge Letter R: Real Red, removable tag
My card is going to a friend who is a devoted fan of the Dodgers Baseball team. I used the two Dodger blue colors with accents of red.
The tag is removable. It could be a bookmarker, gift tag, reveal a secret message, or have a little gift money hidden behind it. Fun!
I created the baseball by punching a 2.5 inch circle; and then using the circle opening as a template, I drew two curved lines in gray. With a red marker, I drew little V stitches, making sure the stitches go the opposite way.
I adjusted the sketch a little by placing the strip 4 on top. It was fun to use a fussy cut, stamped baseball bat and I didn't want to hide it. The knob is popped up to allow the tag to slide in and out.
Thanks for a really great sketch, Allison! TFL

Awesome! I might case this in orange and brown - my son's school colors, he is the baseball coach. I love this old set. You did a great job on the baseball too.

Oh wow Diane, this is so fun and so creative and such a great card for a Dodger's Fan too. I love how you added the stitching to the baseball, and I love the removable tag too! So fun! ~Karen.
