Liam's 9th Birthday card.

The youngest son of our next door neighbours was 9 last Wednesday and I made this cricket themed card for him. Liam plays for the Under 9's team at our local cricket club so I used a green base card and the club colours of red and black. The image stamps are from a Clare Curd set and I used some of the smaller stamps with Versamark to add interest to the background ... not showing up very well in the photos though. The images have been coloured with Promarkers and some of the equipment in the bottom right corner has been attached with foam pads. I wanted a stripey paper in red and green to match the colour scheme but I didn't have anything suitable so had to search through my cd's for a DP. After going through all my Funky Hand discs and Pink Petticoat downloads, without success, I managed to find this one on a Kirsty Wiseman disc, it's just perfect and very 'crickety' I think.

Stamps - It's a Man's World by Papermania

I wonder if Liam has noticed that there are nine cricket balls on the card?
Thanks for looking.
