Soccer Grandson

Hi everyone, WOW, are we experiencing heat!  Could get a couple of 90 degree days.  Today

is supposed to be 87 and the Buffalo Bills are playing football here today!  What we used to call Indian Summer.  But, we should enjoy it now, because before you know it we will be shoveling snow.

I made this card for my Grandson, who turned 17 recently.  He is a soccer player, both indoor in the winter and outdoor in the summer and he also is a referee as a part time job for soccer games.

The inside

The papers are from an old sports 8x8 inch stack from Me and My Big Ideas.

Dies, player - Amy Design, The Studded Boots - Tonic

Numbers - Gina Marie - Stitched Flag die - CC Designs

He loved the card, and the money tucked into the top of the Flag!!

He is addicted to buying new cleats, and because he is a growning

boy, the size changes often........much to his Mom's dismay.

Thanks for stopping by today. Have a wonderful Day.  Until later....

What's better than your best friend and an Ice Cream Cone

Hello friends.  A simple card today with an adorable Mo Manning digi.

and DCWV. Sentiment Stampendous clear stamp set. Colored with Copics

Hope everyone is having a good day.  Thanks for stopping by today. Until later....
