Sports & Hobbies WLSC

 Hi Everyone my DT make today is for the mid month post for 

We Love Stamping

This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme from Anesha

 
 
As I said in my previous WLSC post, I have just one set of stamps for sports and as I hadn't used some sets, I decided to go with them. However, I have used this set before, here
 
I decided to use kraft card, something I haven't used in an age.  I stamped the dart board, then die cut it, with a larger die cut in black card. I temporally placed them in the centre of the layer card, which had been to cut to add onto the base layer. I haven't a circle stamping platform, so tried to add the darts as evenly as possible, I haven't been too successful, but I don't think the men notice, I hope not. 
 
I then coloured them with markers, fixed the dart board in place, stamped the sentiments from the dart set, then cut them by hand and added them at an angle onto the card. Next I added a red pearlised layer to brighten the card a bit and placed the layers onto the base card.

  Hi Everyone my DT make today is for

We Love Stamping

This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme chosen by Anesha. 

 I have very few sports stamps, in fact just one set, I've had for years. I've not used this set of images, so decided to follow a sketch and case a card that was shown on the back of the stamps package.
I firstly stamped the pins, I was going to write the Happy onto the pins, but I'm a bit shaky of late, so decided to see if my Silhouette could cut, out of card, 5mm x 7mm letters. It did, incredible really, I'm always impressed how good it is. I added them to the pins. 
 
Next I die cut the circle for them and die cut a paper from a pad for the larger circle, with the same colours, that I had decided on. 
 
For the background I stamped the ball over the card and die cut it to fit the base card, it was added to it.
 
Next the circles were glued together, and edged with the ball layer. The pins were added, one sideways, as if it was hit by the ball. I then added a die cut orange piece of card and stamped the birthday on it. Adding the ball.
