The green and brown card base is supposed to be like grass with a dirt infield. That part of the card is "flat" like a postcard. The baseball opens at the top where it has a hinge. To make this, I folded the ivory cardstock, then cut the circle, making sure to stop before going all the way around.
Stamps: You're a Winner, Running Stitches
Ink: Noir, Moulin Rouge and Cognac Palettes
Paper: Ivory Ultrasmooth, Bazzill Greens, Brown
Other: Watercolor Pencils with Dove Blender, Gray Tombow, eyelets set with Crop-a-dile
Note: I again used a Stipple Brush to apply the Cognac ink to make it look like a dirty baseball. I also bent the Running Stitches Stamp to make it look like stitching on a baseball. Once again, that's partly why I love unmounted stamps so much! Woo Hoo!
