CASology Week #29

Hi friends!  This weeks cue word at CASology is...

   I created my own basketball by punching out a circle from orange cardstock and drawing the lines on.  I then ran it through the dots embossing folder to make it look more like a basketball.  I used my paper piercing mat to create the look of where the ball has bounced.  :)  This card is going to my nephew who loves to play basketball.

I am also entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp challenge-Anything goes.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!
