Nothing says summertime like a baseball game! And living with 3 Chicago Cubs baseball super-fans, we see a lot of baseball games!
This fun Game On kit from Websters Pages features nice bright colors and sports themed images, perfect for me!
For the border I aligned the printed words with just a few strips of adhesive from the E-Z Runner®, all the way down the edge.
I used the E-Z Runner® to mat the photos and other blocks.
For the “Clark and Addison” street signs, I printed photos I had taken of the signs. I used Thin 3D Foam Squares and regular 3D Foam Squares to add dimension and depth. This is how I placed them on the back sides of the signs ~
Using this technique, the signs look like more realistic, one side is ‘closer’ to you than the other, like this~
I also added 3D Foam Squares behind the drink image, just a single regular layer, so that it had dimension.
I used these supplies:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™:
- Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix
- 3D Foam Squares Black Small
- E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips
- Websters Pages – Game On Kit
Thanks for reading, and Play Ball!
