Great Game



It is week 3 of the Stamping Bella Design Team competition - and this week was based on a sketch.

I decided to make another card for my oldest DS - soccer is his life!!

I stamped Jackson the Champion
on Bella's Bestest paper and coloured him with Copics. I added some Sakura Glaze pen to the uniform to make it look like the shiny swishy soccer clothes that my DS always wears!
I added a soccer ball brad on top of the stamped soccer ball, so it looks like it is flying through the air!

The image is cut and matted with Nestabilities, and popped up with foam dots for dimension.

All Patterned paper and the sticker sentiment are Carolees Creations - I love that there is soccer themed stuff that isn't just black and white!! I machine stitched around the outer edges and added a sticker strip down the center. The card base is Bazzill bling cardstock - nice and shimmery!

Finally, I added some black Kaiser pearls to finish it all off!

Wish me luck - one more week for the Bella DT to vote on who they want to join their team!!
