Kickin'

This week Jo is in the  The Daring Cardmakers 
challenge-setter's hotseat! 
Now Jo and her boys love football and are no doubt getting nicely excited about all the football-craziness coming up this summer.  I do not like football, but grew up in the sort of family where if there was football on the telly, it was on the telly.  Full Stop.  Like it or Lump it.
I lumped it

However, with a lot of football fans in the family I do make quite a few themed cards for birthdays each year and in May particularly!  So Jo's dare was just the ticket for getting one of our nephew's cards done and dusted.

Here it is, a rocker card with a giant football and net.  This card is about 20cms "square"

I've used;
Black, white, green and red Bazzill card
Football, net, banner and lettering all cut from my own templates using the Silhouette Cameo
Punched stars
Large circle base is an Xcut die

Will you be playing ball with us this week?  There's plenty more inspiration over on our Blog, so please pop by and have a look

Thanks for visiting

Love the distorted netting - perfect for a goal scorer! Great football card, you must struggle to keep thinking of new angles on these!
