Thanks, Coach~

High School girls soccer ended a few weeks ago and the team party is later this week. The team captains are gathering donations to put towards a coach's gift. Being a captain's mom I made the card to go along with the gift.

All stamps are by Our Craft Lounge:
Thanks sentiment is from Big Thanks
Soccer ball from Go Team
Dandy Days provided the grass

I discovered the soccer ball fits a 3/4" circle punch perfectly, so the ball is punched out and popped up on a dimensional foam hex. While most of the "grass" the girls play on is synthetic turf, they have played on grass that seems as long like the grass in the panel. :)

Patterned papers are from The Guy Stack by Die Cuts with a View
Inks: Vivid! Coffee Bean. Taupe, Olive and Adirondack Stream
4 mini brads and a simple brown bow finish off this not too fancy coach's card.

High School is over, club has just started. Jay and Morgan just returned from a weekend college showcase in Las Vegas - they won all 4 games. YAY!

Hey Val. . .LOVE this card. My youngest daughter (freshman in high school) just made the JV Soccer team. We are all pumped! I think I'll have to CASE this card, but convert it to a "Way To Go" type of card. Congrats to Morgan and her fun weekend in Vegas! Thanks for the wonderful eye candy!
