Play Ball


This was created for the House Mouse and Friends challenge. This week we were to created with a sketch. Love this sketch. I turned it on it's side. I always think a sketch gets you started in a direction you wouldn't normally take. It challenges me outside of my old habits...

This image is a RAK from my friend Sue. I love it. Baseball takes up a lot of my time and I love it.....and the one that makes me love it is here:









Here is the link for the challenge: MOUSE

Have a great day....

  21. Such an adorable card, Dawn. I love that image ... your colors and embellishments are perfect as is your coloring. You did a great job with the sketch and totally inspired me so hopefully I'll have some time to give it a try. I picked up a cute little HM stamp at Hobby Lobby a couple of weeks ago, so I know exactly what image I'll use.
