Snow Globe KC.....

Here is a card inspired by my recent Painting trip to Blanc Palette where we painted the Baseball.  I knew then that "Sparkly Seasons/Seasonal Frames"  would be my go to stamp set for "out of the Box" Snow Globe creations. 
The Ball was stamped on Whisper White and cut out by hand because I did not want any white border.  The Snow stamp was actually used as shadow on the ball and stamped in Sahara Sand.  I also sponged Sahara Sand on the edges.  I hand drew the Laces with the Real Red marker.  The stand was cut from Silver Paper.  Trees were stamped in Mossy Meadow from the "Wonderland" set.  The panel was embossed with the Softly Falling embossing folder to mimic Snowfall.  I added some Silver Dazzling Details for more Sparkle!
 KC was cut out with the Little Letters Thinlits.  These are so handy to have!

  2. What a great card, Kat! I love the way you've given the baseball dimension with that shading. Adding a bit of silver glitter to some of the raised embossing finishes it off very nicely. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday challenge this week.

  3. Very creative Kat. Wonderful way to showcase another passion. I am guessing you or someone you know is a Royals fan right? {grin} Thanks for sharing an out of the box idea that beautifully fulfills the Anything Goes Challenge at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge. Looking forward to future submissions too. :D

    1. I actually am a ticket seller at the KC Royals, my 16th year and since we went to the World Series last year a few of my Ticket selling friends and I make "Post Season" cards! This is one of the samples I made for this year. 1 more coming on Monday. Thanks for the comment!
