Another age card

More of the shopping bag saga - it seems I had left the water in my steam iron so it wouldn't get as hot as the first time I did them, when I poured the water out, DUH! I had to throw 6 bags out, as I ruined them, I am going to take 11 into work and hopefully sell them as seconds!!!!  I took the good ones in and all were pleased with them, I also sold a few more and had some orders too, at the end of the day, I may break even.

I was asked by one of the girls in the office to make a card for her friend who is a fanatical Celtic supporter.  Not being a football fan I had to search on line to see what they were all about.  I copied their emblem and made it into a backing paper in PS, I then "masked" it and it covered the 6. I made green stripes on white as that is their shirt colour and masked and covered the 3, it seems they have a tartan, I hope I have used the right one, which I used as a backing and printed directly onto the card. I also got from the web a photo of the cup they won in France and copied the colours of the ribbons by adding ribbons onto the footballs border I made up in PS. I then 3D'd the scarf to make it look like it was around the six.  I cut his name out of black card with my Cricut.   I am glad to say she was thrilled, just hope the recipient will be.

I am going to enter the card into the following challenges.
