Of course, Sallie used a St. Louis "Cardinal" and I decided to change it up a bit and make "Dinger", the CO Rockies Mascot! Kept the square card layout, don't make too many of these, but I like them!
Have been wanting to give this a go, since I saw her card and since she was chosen Queen this last Friday, it gave me the chance to get this card out of my head and on a card!
Did you notice the "snowflake" bg? Hey, it could happen...I know of at least one game postponed due to SNOW! Okay, the pearls may be a bit of a stretch, but they were required to meet the challenge, so I added those too!
Hope you like it and thanks for looking!

How cute, Celisa! I love how you adapted the card to your team and its mascot! I like the snowflakes and torn Rocky Mountains in the bg! All done in the team colors! We're in the Nat'l League too...so we get to see the Rockies now and then! : ) Thank you for creating a card for the QFTD18 gallery. I really appreciate it!

Yikes, I open the gallery and whose card do I come upon first? How funny is this: I just now sent you a pm. I think your card is positively wonderful. I know your family is pretty attuned to those rockies. I'm so glad you had artistic license to get this out of your head and onto cardstock. It's really great, snow and all.
