Bellariffic Friday - Inspiration 1

This week's Bellariffic Friday is an "inspiration picture".  I'll admit, I was a bit scared of it - I'm much better with a sketch - but I'm happy with the end result even if I did get one of the colours wrong!  Apparently it's red, not orange, but as DanaBella says "it's open to interpretation" :)

I gave the soccer ball some dimension with a blob of crystal effects and I sponged lightly around the image.  The main things I took from the "inspiration picture" were the chevron and the colours.  I was so happy to find the perfect pattern paper to use!  I also carried those two things through to the inside of the card, using a chevron die in gray and yellow.

I wanted to add a button but this is going to one of my cousins in England (Happy Birthday Eliot!) so it had to be as "bulk-free" as possible for mailing!

An added bonus is that I can enter this card in the SCS Bellatastic Tuesday #3 challenge as it's "sentiment free".  I've listed all the supplies used below.
