It’s a GOAL!!
This week’s ‘Ways to Use It’ challenge is to create a card around playing games or puzzles, etc. Well, I happen to live in the vicinity of a large soccer park, so the first thing that came to mind was soccer! Children and adults of all ages & sizes have been keeping the field full on the weekends lately .. .. that is when the mud hasn’t kept them waiting.
I used my Kittie Kits Master set to create the grassy soccer field and sponged in the appearance of a sun-filled sky. (Gotta keep those positive thoughts of sunshine for the players!) The rest was a snap to stamp in place! The ball was stamped & cut separately, to provide the dimension and appearance of traveling to the net. After stamping the sentiment, it was overstamped with stars, punched out, dotted with a marker and layered. Ready to hand-off to your favorite soccer player!
Thanks so much for peeking in today! It’s sunny & such a beautiful day here …. I wish I could share it with each of you!
