So, "somebody" I know is a HUGE Packers fan. Hmmm...who could that "somebody" be? Anyway, I had to mail a package with a little somethin' to the Packers fan so I just had to include a card. And even though we're Redskins fans here in our house (let's not go any further on that topic!) I couldn't resist making a card for my dear friend since she's so excited about it all.
The little football boy is from one of my favorite little PURE INNOCENCE sets, MVP from MY FAVORITE THINGS. Awesome since you can make any team, right? I added a little #12 because that's the number of Aaron Rodgers, their quarterback. Someone mentioned Twinkling H2Os this past weekend and that prompted me to dig those sparkly paints out and paint his uniform. I colored his face and arms and the footballs with Copic Markers.
The banner was made using the smaller pennant shape from the PENNANT CUTUPS die set and the COOLVETICA ALPHABET, plus some CANDY APPLE DIVINE TWINE, all from THE CAT'S PAJAMAS. I used a piece of ruled pencil tablet paper that came from my parents basement. I would have to consider it VINTAGE since it's probably from my childhood! I also used a bit of old bookpage for the grass cut with the MFT FRESH CUT GRASS DIE-NAMICS die.
Hope I'm not jinxing them now...GO PACK GO!
I LOVE this, even though they booted my Bears out of the Bowl...lol!!
