I missed out on most of VSN because of Desmond’s baseball games. But you know what? I wouldn’t have it any other way. And with a lot of baseball games comes a lot of baseball friends. That’s why I like to have baseball birthday cards on hand for all the birthday parties. Combining baseball with a circle spinner card means this bunny is hitting foul ball after foul ball. I’ve seen some kids do that this year! LOL.
I made this card for my Virtual Stamp Night Challenge. It was also inspired by my kids. The theme of this VSN was Summer Festivals. Don’t we all love summer festivals? But who loves summer festivals more than kids? One of the highlights of the year in our town is the Lakeside Festival held every Memorial Day Weekend. We brought our boys this year and they spent hours riding the rides with their friends. Rides that made me sick just looking at them. So. Much. Spinning.
Here is a video of Raleigh’s favorite ride. Anybody wonder why I chose the Circle Spinner Card Tutorial for my challenge?
I’ve also combined my challenge with Chris’s CC900 (CC82) Color Challenge. Fun colors for a boy card and her dessert is “something that moves.” That ball sure does move. This is my first circle spinner card I’ve ever made and I’m shocked at how well it works. I usually screw up these interactive cards and they don’t move smoothly.
And what good is a baseball birthday card without a baseball joke? Here is the inside of my card:
The sentiment uses my very own font that I created on calligraphr.com. If you’d like to use this on your cards just right click on the image above and save it to your computer. If you use it, I’d love to see it, so please tag me @cardsbyjennifrann and #thestampingactuary.
Also, I know you love this bunny baseball player, right? Here he is. And he comes with a lot of fun sentiments. Click below to visit the shop.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
