For a Chiefs Fan

I've got a quick card to share today 
in honor of Super Bowl Sunday

My coworker asked for a card
for her brother who is a Kansas City Chiefs fan.
If you only could've seen the look on my face?!
I'm not big into football and even less into making
football fan cards...lol
I couldn't say no, so here's what I came up with...

Hero Arts CL754 Dude, Lawn Fawn Star Stackable die, Lawn Fawn Cole's ABC,
Doodlebug Design Washi Tape and Bumblebee sequins, 
Hero Arts Shadow inks in Pale Tomato and India Ink Black


I started with the Kansas City Chiefs' colors
and created a tone on tone football stamped background.
(In hindsight I wish I had used a darker red ink color).
I die cut stars out of vellum and washi taped the edges together
(because I don't sew ;o)
leaving one point of the star open to fill with sequins, 
then taped it up.
To personalize I added the recipients name from die cut letters
and stamped the sentiment.
I'm thinking this is going to be my go-to design for football fans 
since the color theme can easily be changed!

All right back to prepping for the Super Bowl...
hope you all have a fabulous Sunday and a great week ahead!!

Mahalo for stopping by!!!
