Sports

I have to admit that I barely watched the Olympics at all.  The only part I watched was the last match of the women's singles tennis.  I played tennis in high school so I still like to watch it from time to time.

This card is made completely from cuts from Life's a Party.  The card is cut at 3.5 inches (from the page that the onsie is the main image).  I made the tennis ball at 3 inches.  You might be thinking "Self, I don't remember seeing a tennis ball on Life's a Party."  You'd be right!  I used the basketball cut (that is the shifted image on the Soccer ball page) and cut off the extra lines in the layer.  Voila!  Tennis ball.  I cut the capital F from the font on Life's a Party at 1.5 inches.  The font on that cartridge is really wide, and I didn't want it so wide, so I cut off part of the left side to make it a cleaner "F."  

All of my sister-in-laws play tennis, and one is joining her High School tennis team this year, so I figured I'll have plenty of chances to give this card. 



I'm entering this in the following challenges:
