I realize I am a week late posting this card (or rather SEVERAL weeks) since this card was made for a
sketch challenge by Carolyn at the release in August but also because I should have posted it last week in celebration of the Longhorns whipping the pants off the Boomer Sooners! HA~actually I am not really that much of a college football fan - but John is and he usually watches all the games but since I do live in the area I can pretend that I care. It was real fun making this card, though! I love the spellbinders die that Ellen Hutson sent me with an order last year, it was perfect for this sketch! The reason I never uploaded it was because I missed the deadline to be entered in the contest and then forgot about posting it altogether! Since UT won again yesterday and remain undefeated - here you go!!!
I made my own patterned paper by stamping Big Fan from the
Just so Sporty set by Gina K Designs and looked on-line for UT jerseys & paper-pieced it to look like a real one (tried to find it, but can't). I used my small alpha set by JustRite Stampers for the 'TEXAS' stamped in craft white on the really rust shirt.
Don't forget the
Land-Cruise Party in the Gina K Forum on Weds Oct 22 7:00-10:00 p.m. CST!! It will be loads of fun with a land-cruise specials, challenges & contests!
