~ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOOOOOTBALLL???~

HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!! I hope everyone is waking up to a beautiful day. I know a lot of folks are having very cold days still so stay warm and inside as much as you can. Here in Arizona, it's been a little cool but nothing like everyone else is having. It's actually getting back up into the 70s during the day, so it's been nice!

Anyways, I have a fun little card for you today. Everyone knows what February 6, 2011 is right?? WHAT?!?! YOU DON'T?!?! Well it's SUPERBOWL SUNDAY!!!!!!!! The 2nd day of most consumed food in the USA behind Thanksgiving! That little fact when I read it surprised me really. Guess I need to go back to the grocery store! 

Congratulations to all the Steelers fans out there...and the ahem... Packer fans! My team obviously didn't make it, but HOPEFULLY we'll be there next year! But since I couldn't make any cards or have a party for my team, I made a little Invite card for a friends brother that is a die hard Steelers fan. So hopefully he'll like it when he receives it!! 

For this card I used a cute little collaboration set by Stitchy Stamps and Panda Bear Designs called Football Mini Kit. I did open it up in PSP and with the artists permission, and alter the number and helmet icon so that I could put the appropriate numbers on their jerseys. I don't usually use digital papers, but I'm finding myself liking them more and more. You have everything you need in this little set, from the digital stamps to your papers. So head on over and grab this little set so you can get your cards and favors ready for all those Superbowl Parties coming up!!! 
If you will be going to parties or having parties, be safe, smart and live to see the next Superbowl! And of course have fun!!!
