A whole Boxful of Balls

 


Hello!

Welcome to my little crafting place! 
Here's where I share the things I've been making, and sometimes other bits of waffle!
Today I'm sharing the card I've made for my owns challenge to the Daring Cardmakers this week.  It so happened that I needed a birthday card for my nephew earlier this month so bearing that in mind I made my challenge to match his card!

I'm soooo not a football fan but here in the UK you can't get away from knowing that (unfortunately😞) the football season has started! So this week I'd like you to work with the phrase

 On or At the Ball

However, you don't have to make a football themed card!
Believe it or not, there are actually other ball games you might feature, or you could add a beach ball, or throwing a ball for a doggy friend
OR how about a different kind of ball altogether?
Meat balls, gumballs, high ball glass, disco ball - you could even create a fabulous ball gown, or a 'Strictly' style ballroom extravaganza!
 
 
 I made a football themed box card.
There's something satisfying about the way a fairly flat card just pops out to make a box full of 'stuff'. I kept this one quite simple with some ball shaped die cuts and football kit, plus some images from the pc carefully resized to match circle dies then printed out ready to die cut or punch!

The black and white stripes are for Newcastle United, of course and I made the paper on the pc.I made a 'belly band' in yellow and blue to match theother colours on the NUFC emblem.
