Ties for guys

I was trying to come up with ideas for masculine cards and this is one of my ideas. I asked my son what he saw on the card and he said ties... So I think my idea worked. I am still trying to think of how to embellish - what to use for tie tacks?!

Thank you for Yankee fan

I created this card with a Yankee fan in mind (my son chad to be specific). I used all Stampin Up products. I sketched and cut out the bats (whisper white) then used sponges to shade them with basic grey then soft suede. The pinstripes are whisper white and midnight muse. The baseball is layered on soft suede. The card base is basic grey. Basic black trims the card and accents the 3white brads.
