The theme of the card was obvious bearing in mind his football team preference.
I made this using my Cricut Create machine and the Cricut Gypsy. Cartridges used were Soccer and Disney - Mickey Font.
I used my Gypsy Device and selected the football shirt (from the Soccer Cartridge) and hid all the detail cut so I had a basic shirt shape, I then welded the shirt, boot (shadow feature) and ball (shadow). I positioned the name and numbers within the shirt, the font taken from Disney - Mickey Font. This was cut out using the main football shirt colour.
I also cut in a contrast colour the name and number again to insert in the main shirt once main cut completed.
I cut 2 further boot shadows in white Bazzill card stock.
I cut the ball (detailed cut) and two boot (detailed cut) in bazzill black card stock. I attached the boots and football detail cuts over the relevant shadows.
The 2nd Boot was fixed on main shirt using 3d foam.
The 'Happy' and 'Birthday' banners were created using the Cricut Mickey Mouse font Cartridge and cut out from a white section of card, the letters were cut again in blue card and inserted into the relevant sections.
The card was 7" x 7" in size. The two word strips were added to the top and bottom of the card and matted onto blue card. A white section was added in between.
The shirt section was attached to part of the middle of the card.
Two Spurs emblem were printed and fixed tot he centres of two rosette's created and added to the white strip at the top of the card.
As a finally decoration , my husband being a watford support and both teams being in the premiership this year , the score 6-0 in Watford's favour was added to the rear of the card - as a private joke- not sure Gerry will see the funny side.
