Happy 10th Birthday Brody & Drake

Our "twins"- Brody & Drake turned 10 yesterday!

WOW!

I can't believe how fast time flies!

This basketball card is what we made for their birthday party invites.

I used some retiring products-

Basketball stamp & number dies.

The wood grain DSP is from the In Good Taste DSP 

on page 132 in the Annual Catalog.

The circles are from the Layering Circle Dies.

And I used the Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder on the card base.

 Here is the pile of invites we made!

The boys wanted basketball invites & they totally approved of these!  

It was worth every bit of planning & making them.

Manda & I made these in a couple of hours one afternoon.

We are pretty fast stampers & we whipped these out pretty fast together.

 This is what the inside of the card looks like.

 So what do you think?

I stamped the basketballs onto Cajun Craze card stock using Cajun Craze ink.

I then took my Light Basic Black Stampin' Blend & traced over the lines

& around the edge of the basketballs to make them black.

Here are the supplies & measurements.
