Football Fanatic

Hiya! it's time for a little mid-week inspiration for From The Heart Stamps.
This week i'm using an image from the set Birdbrain Football Fanatics.
This great download includes 3 individual Birdbrains (one with and without writing on the sign), a merged image, and 5 bonus sentiments. I think you'll agree, it's a great buy :)

Here's my card for today, made for my daughter's partner...

I opened up my image in Paintshop Pro, then added my happy birthday greeting (which is from Party Hat Birdbrain).
As the recipient is a fan of Wolverhampton Wanderers football club, I coloured this little dude with my promarkers so that he is wearing their football shirt.
The papers are from Doodlebug's 'Hip Hip Hooray' paper pad, and I teamed them with silver mirror card. The bottom border piece was punched with my Xcut 'diamond' border punch.
'Alan' was cut using Die-namics 'By The Letter' dies.

I'm entering this card at:
