Sketch Saturday

I have used the sketch saturday challenge this week to create a card for my little man today. He will be 12 on Sunday. He probably won't thank me for putting his piccy up here, but it has to be done lol!!! Anyway onto his birthday card. He adores football, so I was determined that I could fit this sketch around it.The papers are all from a kit that I bought a few years ago & have never finished using. There certainly isn't much of it left nowlol!!! The image is from a cd by Kismet Creations called Generation TeXt that is available through my website. The ribbon & peel off are both from my stash. Here is a closer look at the sentiment although it doesn't photograph very well.I took part of the sketch & took it through to the inside of the card with a couple of footballs that I layered with foam pads.
