First attempt at suspension card, and I dont think the little 10yoa boy will care about the mistakes...hehe.
He is a huge baseball/Yankee fan, and when I found this EKSuccess sticker pack, I had to play.
The base is red, then blue with white stock I pinstriped using markers/ruler. The pennant is red/blue layers, and I hand drew white NY letters using white gel pen. Tassels are word punches folded and held by brads
The upper right wording is a sticker. The bottom right circle, is a Riveting stamp with a baseball brad in middle on dimensional. I also colored in edges with blue marker and again with glitter pen [cant see well in pic]. The jersey is also from sticker pack - there was a front + back sticker. The 'back view' of sticker has name NOAH and number 10 [birthday year].
TFL, Valerie

Mistakes? What mistakes? This is too great to see any mistakes. I saw a card similar to this in one of the convention photos. You've taken it to the highest level! Love it. Will have to CASE it.

What mistakes, this is perfect! I'm off to Michael's to find a football pack (my son plays varsity football). Thanks for sharing!

FANTASTIC! Most of my family members are sports fanatics and I plan to make this card for all of them for their favorite sports. Great creativity! TFS!

Thanks to you all for your generous comments! You have made my day! I got the stickers at the clearance aisle of Hobbly Lobby in the last 3 weeks, for 70 cents! I looked today while there, for any teams you all have mentioned, to buy and send you, but our store is all out now. I'll keep you all in mind though.
thanks again for your wonderful comments,
Valerie
