Batter Up!

I'M SO HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THAT I HAVE BEEN CHOSEN AS A DT MEMBER FOR LET'S GET SKETCHY
WOOOHOOO WHAT AN HONOR TO PART OF SUCH A VERY TALENTED TEAM.
THIS LAYOUT BELOW THAT I CREATED TO APPLY FOR THE POSITION IS ALSO MY VERY FIRST POST AT THE LET'S GET SKETCHY BLOG. 
PLEASE CALL OVER THERE, HAVE A LOOK AT WHAT THE OTHER DESIGN TEAM MEMBER HAVE CREATED. ALSO JOIN IN THE CHALLENGE WHICH IS AN AWESOME SKETCH.  


Hello and as always welcome to my blog. I would like to show you a layout I have created for the design Team Call over at Let's Get Sketchy.

This layout is of a friends daughter and I'm making an album for her. Mum and the girls are all into softball and I just love the girls uniform. Beautiful pink for beautiful girls. 

This is the sketch that I had to to work with and I do love sketches. 

 

Now for my take on it. I must credit photographer Ray Gapinski for this photo though. Bit hard for me to take the pic in Australia when they are across the big water lol. His photos are just amazing.


I created my layout on Kaisercraft white cardstock and used a beautiful pink spray ink with a little Distress Spray Stain - Iced Spruce to create on top of. 


The patterned papers are by Glitz Design - All Dolled Up. and I inked the edges with Distress ink - Black Soot. I also used some black cardstock to go with the face grid and make the photo pop a little. The Babe Ruth saying is from Kaisercrafts Game On Sticker Sheet - Base Ball.


The ornate circle is by Molossi and I have coloured it with Kaisercraft Fusion pen and then used Glossy Accents over the top. The baseball, bat and helmet are chippies by Scraptopia and I have used the following products on them - Kaisercraft - Dusty Pink Paint, Fusions P12, E02 and WG04, StazOn ink Cotton White.


My title Batter Up! is also from the Kaisercraft Game On Sticker Sheet - Baseball. I thought it was just perfect for the photo.


I hope you have liked my submission for the DT call at Let's Get Sketchy. Until my next post happy crafting and I would also like to wish you all a Happy Easter. May the bunny be good to you
Hugs xxx
