FOOTBALL CARD

kit295381_1051 Football card

I opened this design in Silhouette Studio, and deleted the outer card size and the centre fold line. I selected the footballer, grouped it, and then selected cut for the lines. I drew an oval the size of the footballer oval, chose white as the fill colour and line colour, selected no cut, and sent it to the back. Then I drew a circle the size of the football, filled it with white, selected no cut, and placed it over the design football. Then I grouped everything. I made the card for my grand-son, who supports Manchester United, but any colours and badges could be used. I?d scanned a football shirt to get a background colour, and I inserted that and sent it to the back of the design. Most football club badges are on a Google site. I inserted two of those, and arranged them at the front of the card. The text was High Tower Text Bold, which I filled with white and selected no cut. The design was printed on Crafty Bob?s photo paper, and the card was cut on a Silhouette Cameo. I edged it with gold peel-offs. I used gold mirror card for the backing sheet behind the cut-out, and attached both pieces to a piece of A4 white linen card folded to A5 size.
