Baseball Baby Announcement



So a really good friend of mine from high school is due with a little boy ANY day now! I offered to do her announcements for her and this is one of the ideas I came up with.

I painted the glove and the ball separately, scanned them in, cut them out and assembled them. The stitching is real thread and the ball opens up to display the baby's picture(when he comes) and all his info! Here's what it looks like when you open it:

Thanks guys. Yeah, I'll absolutely help you brainstorm. Send me an email and let me know along the lines of what type of theme you might be looking to do. And then I can pass along some ideas.

Emily this is just gorgeous! You are such a talented girl! I would love to buy this glove/ball template from you so I can use it for coach gifts!
