Footballer

I made this card in about 1/2 an hour, since that is all the time I had while my dinner was cooking. I started it just after putting my dinner in the oven and was finishing up the stamping when the timer beeped...perfect! This is a 4 1/2"x6 1/4" card. I used purple for the card base. I used my Gypsy to create the yellow paper with the goal posts. This is the background feature on Sports Mania. I used my Gyspy to size it, since it is supposed to be square. I used a purple Cri-Kit to draw the background paper. I wrapped the yellow paper with some football ribbon that I had in my stash. The grass was cut from Sports Mania using the cut to length feature, so it was cut at 4 1/4." The football player was also cut form Sports Mania at 3." I used two different sizes of pop-dots to adhere the grass, then the football player. I used the colors of my state's football team...the Vikings! I think it will make a great birthday card for a die hard Vike's fan.

I made this card for the following challenges:
