Football Jersey Birthday Card

Time for a new challenge at House of Cards;

SHAPED CARDS ! No rectangles, no squares ;) 

This is going to be so much fun to see what all of you

create and share with us ! 

Yeah, yeah:
mine is basically a rectangle,
but I have created many other really fun
and unique shaped cards in the past.
You can see some of them here.

I've been waiting impatiently to share this project

since making it late last fall for a nephews birthday.

It is a football jersey shaped card!

It is not a  4.25 x 5.5" card like many of us create.

I had to make it larger to look right to me and be able to 

add the details that I did. 

I made it to fit a large envelope I had on hand. 

Unfortunately I did not think to trace it and scan the outline

for a pattern to share here before I gave it away.
It is cut from one piece of card stock
with an additional white piece inside to write on.

Marker, sponging of ink,

card stock scraps cut to fit

and stamped, heat embossed white letters

were all used to give detail to the jersey.

The 13 was cut out using my old Cricut Create machine.
