This is my card for the wonderful Mark. I have just been and posted it along with some candies that are NZ made. I hope he likes them. Tee hee hee -- if not maybe Aunty Cookie will eat them.

This challenge is making it painfully obvious to all us teapotters that there are holes in our stamp collections. You did a great job on the football and how thoughtful to send along sweets for him.

I totally agree -- I only just received a order I placed for some teenage boy stamps today -- the skateboarder and motorbike ones -- I had already made and posted Marks football so did not get to use them. But I have huge holes in my stamp collection for masculine images. Thanks for your comment

How *sweet* of you to include some candies with this wonderful customised football. Well, to me, and no doubt to you, it's actually more like a rugby ball, but then those Americans do have their funny ways, LOL.

Rut roh! You should not have mentioned the goodies...the mail is going to Cookie first! Snort! Have self control Cookie! Giggle! Aww....I betcha she will ADD to them not EAT them!
Kim, this is such a very precious card! You did good and what a fun this will be for Mark. You are so kind, always sending stuff off from New Zealand. Its fun getting mail from SO FAR AWAY!!! I love this.....precious!
I tried to check email this morning, not sure if you answered mine. Comcast email is down so I will be in touch when I can.........wasn't sure if you answered my email....
Hey Kim...quit that! Don't be throwing that football at the opposing team's basketball players! You are confusing Sam, she will think that's part of the game!!!

Cute card, great idea of making the embossed football with his name on it. He is going to feel so special to have this card that is personalized just for him.
