Let's play ball

This is my card for the challenge over at Cards for Men.  It should have been on here last week, but I've been swamped, so although the card was made on time, my post wasn't.  The challenge still has a week to run, though and there's a great prize from The Paper Shelter.

The image I used is Happy Times - Baseball.  The nice thing about the images at The Paper Shelter is that you also get a pre-coloured version and a background page.  So if you are in a rush you can 'cheat'.I've coloured my image using promarkers.  The backing paper is from Fancy Pants.

Please pop on over to the main challenge post to get the full details and to see the rest of the cards made by my team mates.

Happy Easter...

...is what I intended to say but now it's a bit belated.  Here is my DT card for Cards for Men which was meant to be posted on Monday but has been delayed since by youngest son has had a tummy bug and needed his mum.

The challenge is being sponsored by Letraset and if you pop over to Cards for Men you'll find out all about the prize and get to see the cards from my team-mates.  The theme, by the way, is humour so hopefully you'll all get a giggle as well.

My card uses an image from Scribbled Kidz called Chocs Away which I have coloured with my promarkers.  The sentiment is computer generated and the papers are from my stash.  I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Sweet n' Sassy Digi Challenge - Think Spring
Stampin With The Dragon - Easter
Simply Create Too - animals
Digi Haven – Spring

It's Sketchy at Cards for Men

It's time for another challenge over at Cards for Men and this time we have a sketch for you.  Here's my card, but you'll find loads more inspiration over on the main post from my team-mates.  The prize on offer is a 6-pack of Flexmarkers from Letraset so hop on over and join in.

On my card I'm using a new image from Scribbled Kidz which I've coloured with promarkers.  The sentiment is from a Greetings Farm set which I've stamped using Lucky Limeade from Stampin Up.  The lace was a bit from my stash.
