SC - Sports theme- Slam Dunk Masculine Happy Birthday

2:00 AM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

Happy Monday Everyone!! I hope you all had a great weekend!! It was a great weekend spending time with my girls, hubby and inlaws!! It is such a blessing to see my step mother in law recovering so well from her recent surgery...almost back to her usual self..just tires more easily.

Anywho...I am popping in to share this week's Stamp and Create Product Spotlight. This week's spotlight is Sports Theme. That means any stamps in the store with the Sports Theme are up to 25% off!!

Here is my creation:

I made this card for my neighbor's son who just turned 12. He is very big into sports, especially basketball.

I used Slam Dunk from Wags n Whiskers for my creation. I also used the Whimsy Birthday Wish List stamp for the front of the card. The papers are from Basic Grey Marakech and from my scrap bin. The image is colored with copics. I used leather for embellishing to give it a more masculine feel. The border on the bottom is using a Stampin Up Scallops punch.

For the inside, I used the Whimsy Balloon sentiments designed by Raindrop Echo Designs and the Balloon Shapeology die.

For more inspiration using Sports Themed stamps available at Stamp and Create, please visit my dt sisters:

Joy, Lacey, Heidi, Vicky and Jeanette.
