Just a quick card here for my son who is an avid Dallas Cowboy fan. I used their colors of silver and navy and, of course, their star.
I cut the silver striped card stock at angles and placed on Navy card stock with a little navy peeking through the middle. I added some star embossing, 2 sizes of star punches and some metal brads. I also used the SU button embosslit that I placed over the small stars in the corners. The card stock is Night of Navy and some beautiful silver striped paper from The Paper Temptress.
Thanks so much for taking a look and have a great w/end.

Wow! Pam, this is awesome! What a great sports card for your son. He is surely going to love his mom even more for making this one for him. I love all those silver brads and the corners are great. Good going, Pamzi!!!

Awesome, Pamzi!! This is absolutely super for a Dallas Cowboys (and even Dallas Cowgirls!) fan. I love how you carried the star theme throughout. And the silver and navy are perfect!! You slamdunked (OK, maybe wrong sport metaphor) this one

Brandon will love this, Fruitcake. Looks a lot like Priscilla's sneak peak. you'd better go check it out. I love navy and white together and this card just validates why I love those colors so much. I really like this one with it's neat design and Brandon's favorite team's colors. Outstanding my friend. Plus, I'm rather impressed that you could remember their colors. You know, with that IQ you've been working diligently to ehance.

Woohoo - look at zee punches on this one! Love all that embossing too. This card is sure to score points with your son. I have been a Dallas Cowboy fan forever so of course I love this card (my parents are from around Dallas and growing up in NM that was the closest pro team for us (at the time anyway). Great card Fruitcake!

This is fantabulous Pamzi. Here at our house we watch football 24/7 as soon as pre-season starts in August right up until after the Superbowl. You have created this Dallas Cowboy card spot on. Your son is going to flip when he sees it. This is fantastic. At least you have some nice colors to work with. Mine would be yellow and green!!! Super job Pamzi!
