The theme for today's challenge is 'Pocket'. However, I had just made a pocket card for yesterday's challenge, so I ran out of ideas for a pocket. The phrase 'Pocket Monster' kept coming to mind, but I wasn't sure what it meant. After looking it up, I found out that it is the Japanese phrase for Pokemon. So, I decided to go with this pocket concept.
I found an image of all the colorful Pokemon balls that I liked, and today's new technique for me was to run the lower resolution image through an upscaler. This technique really cleaned up the image and made it card-ready. I then manipulated the image in Canva. Next, I printed out the card twice and ran one through the Scan n cut. After that, I randomly propped up some of the balls using 3d foam.
The three-dimensional aspect makes the card more fun, especially when combined with the fun colors of the balls. I'm hopeful any Pokemon Pocket Monster Trainer fan would love this card.
Thanks for looking today!

I love how colorful your card is, and the popping up of some of the balls adds fun texture!

I have that one on the top level in my card door panel right now - lol (1 grandson loves Pokemon). This card would be a hit with my grandson. Fun images, colors, and card idea, Brian. Hugz

Great take on the challenge, and a fun idea. You are a real whizz with all the digital stuff. It's where I started with cards about thirty years ago, and I'm sure that programs have changed beyond recognition since then.
