Father's Day Card

I spent the afternoon making a Father's day card for my 92 yr old father-in-law. He spent many hours coaching little league for his four boys. They all have fond memories of the time they spent with their father.It was a time when playing was about having fun and doing your best.
I used Boys will be Boys cart for the ball, glove, and bat. The lettering for Dad was cut from Beyond Birthdays. It was alot of fun to do for him!!
I have entered this card in the following challenges

    What a brilliant card. I love the baseball embellishments on this card. The brown paper really looks like wood grain.
