I was asked to make four cards for the same recipient who was celebrating his 60th birthday. It’s always a challenge when doing multiple cards for the same recipient to ensure that all of the cards are relevant but very different from one another. For this first card I used a large version of the pop up box style card but without the usual flaps folding down and in landscape format. I made the card base first then decorated with various football themed die cuts and reflected the recipients favourite football by the colours chose for the replica shirts. I used the following dies to create this:- the Spellbinders S4-1294 Athletic Apparel Die Set, Spellbinders nestabilities stars dies, Provo Craft Cuttlebug Die Embossing Sports Balls Disney, Creative Crafts layered ‘Happy Birthday ‘ sentiment die and Crealies Cardz dies numbers.
