Commissioned Card for a Customer's Uncle


I have had a number of commissioned cards to make - the only drawback is both the mum and daughter order cards for the same relative which does make it a bit difficult but hey ho I will give things a go!!!

For this card I have used Joanna Sheen's Victorian Companions CD for the old-fashioned footballer.  I used various Summer Driggs papers that I printed off last summer and are now living on the box on the table waiting to be used up.  The image I have covered with Tim Holtz's crackle glaze but not sure I put enough on as it's not as crackled as I thought but I've rubbed over some Aged Mahogony and Brushed Cordhoury Tim Holtz Distress Inks over the crackle glaze and also after hacking the edges up a bit.  I have then decoupaged the footballer images.  Think I'll need some more practice with the crackle paint!!

This card first the following challenges:

Lots to do - Distressed
Allsorts - Just for men
Pixie Dust Studio Pixie Challenge - 3D Creations
Cute Card Thursday - Main colour being green
Crafty Catz - Shades of green.
