Actually, It IS Cricket

   Hello

welcome  to my little crafting place! I hope you're emjoying some lovely Spring weather - its so nice, isn't it? 

I've had a great time playing around with The March Wax Seal of the Month club - it has a beautiful 'Perfect Pattern' seal, which stamps so nicely and I think gives an interesting starting point for different uses.  I've made a start on using it on some cards and I'll be sharing some of my ideas over the next few posts.

One thing I thought was how this seal could be used to conjour up golf, tennis, cricket and footballs - and others I'm sure.  Could be handy with those tricky 'masculine' cards I struggle with

 So here's a Cricket themed card for starters. I just used some digi downloads to help get the theme across, and added one of the little sentiments from the March Glimmer of the Month club to personalise it

 For this seal I used the Pour and Scrape technique and white wax for the top, patterned layer, stamped into red wax for the cricket ball, then stamped the whole thing into green wax for the grass

I used:
White, Red and Green Wax Beads
 
Black card, white Glimmer foil
 
Digital 'grass' design and other cricket elements from stash

   Just a Note
