but 3 very big ones, especially tonight when the Superbowl winning quarterback, Russell Wilson spoke in the after show of his father asking him "Why not you?" And he grew up with that thought. Our house has been Seahawks fans forever...so this victory season has been quite special. Wilson alluded back to this sentiment when he mentioned it became the motto for the team this year: 'WHY NOT US?"
This card fits both the TLC to create a card with no layers, but look like there is and the CAS to use a tag or tab. Thank you Joan and Jen for interesting challenges this first Monday in February (already)!
I used Seattle Seahawks colors, College Navy, Wolf Grey, and Action Green. I used one of the Darcy spacers to make the tab in the bricked background, cutting the top out and putting the black fabric tab at the top. The Technique Tuesday 'U' is from their Calamity Jane fonts. And my dear husband twisted the solder {knot}.
I will slip this into the mail tomorrow...just a little reminder to someone very special to remember
'y knot u'! Thanks so much for your comments, they are presents, each one!

Way to go Susan. I am a bit slow on the uptake sometimes,I had to read your description to understand. This is terrific, love everything about it. I am happy that you are happy, go Seahawks. I was cheering for them too, cos I loved the movie Sleepless in Seattle. LOL.

Indeed, why not? Congratulations to all of Seahawks Nation, especially Russell Wilson, who was a Wisconsin Badger. As a lifelong Green Bay Packer fan, I understand how big this is and boy, did they hand out a whuping. Didn't see that coming at all. And thanks to the Seahawks for beating SF also.
Oh and your card is excellent.

I have to admit, I had to read the description too to get the "Why not you"....figured you had something very special there that I just was not getting. In hindsight, it's brilliant!!!! You always put so much thought behind your cards!!!
