A legend retired today, and although I live in MN Vikings land, I have never seen a more awesome example of a true athlete, in every sense of the word, than Brett Favre. So here's a tribute to Brett and all the WI stampers whose hearts must be breaking today. Note that I really did use the 3 colors in the color challenge...but Purely Pomegranate was limited to the sentiment. (I just don't think Brett would be really into that color.)

Wow ~ a limited edition, no less! Love your card and your story is so great. Brett would sure love to see and read this card's story! Would you like me to send it directly to him or his agent?

LOVE the card! I am one of those sad GB fans today, thanks so much for making this! I should CASE it and send it to my family as a "sympathy" card I find it difficult to make a sports card, and especially one using a photo (it's hard to know what to do besides slapping it on the front and calling it good), but you managed to find a good balance. Making it a circle makes it more "crafty." The stamped images you chose are really appropriate, and overall it's a wonderful card. Thanks again!

Awesome card! I'm sure there's many GB fans (and just Brett Favre fans) that would appreciate this card...you'd better make a bunch! Love the layout and the use of 'It's a Sign' stamp set!!!
