I noticed in today's Featured Stamper's (Julie a/k/a Humma) gallery that she used a similar layout for several of her cards, one that included a circle cutout -- including this one that she uploaded today. Later this week, Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company, is releasing a fun sports set called Tailgate Party. I used several of the images from that set to make this card. When I moved to Florida, I started to root for the Miami Dolphins, but there is still a very warm spot in my heart for the Philadelphia Eagles; so I used their colors of black, white, and green for my card.

Eagles... Lois... Lois... ;-) You know I LOVE this card. Super fun textures on the football awesome game day card. Love it... Now let's talk the Eagles, Dolphins I can handle as that has been your team. But second is the Eagles?? hee hee You know I am kidding... Enjoy game day!
With football season just beginning, what a perfect card, Lois. I also live in Florida and I am watching the Miami Dolphins right now who are holding their own. However, like you, I am devotedl to the Denver Broncos (Yeah, they won their first game). By the way, that grass under the football, excellent touch girl!

The second football game of the day is on in the background as I type this. You are obviously more of a football fan than I am! I am about to escape the noise by going into my craft room!! Love the way you put your card together.

Yeah! Go Team Lois! I don't know a dang thing about football (other than what snacks to prep!), but I know a team player when I see one. This case is perfect for your new toys! Great case Lois!

What fun with the AstroTurf and all the footballs! Yes, I am on a kick lately where I just love to have the image within the cut out circle used as a frame...I want to make every card that way! So glad I could inspire you to create something so fun.
