My card today is one I made for my nephew who celebrated his birthday last week.
He's a keen West Ham United football fan, so it had to be made in
their claret and blue colours!

I die cut the football in white and in black card. I glued the white one to a circle of white card,
then glued in the pieces of black card.

After die cutting the banner, I left the card in the die and lightly brushed with the
distress ink. I then cut around the die in the claret card to give it a frame.

The products I have used are:-
Crafter's Companion (Angelica and Adam) Embossing Folder - Football Crazy
Spellbinders - Ribbon Banners
Football die from eBay
Home made card candi
