Custom Retro Commemoratives...

Custom Retro Commemoratives...
Hey ALL, I am always creating or designing something so I thought of this:

I'm calling them Custom Retro Commemorative Cards....I'm putting pieces of patches into....well.......you'll see Wink I've got 2 made already & I am working on MANY more !!!

(Any blemishes that appear are from the scanner)

What would be cool is on the Card that has the flag behind it or the other card as well is to cut around mark while keeping the borders of the card and putting a jumbo patch behind the cut of mark.

I tried that but the edges of the cut aren't smooth :/

Neither...I bought team patches off of the bay (see links):

I just kinda went on a creative spree & thought it would be 'kewl' to pull out some retro favorites & see how they would look with swatches in them Smile I think this would be a new HIT for the card companies to do with real GU pieces on retro cards....I'm working on one now with the Rickey Henderson UD 1991 where they took the photo of him in a 3 motion of stealing a base...One of my favorite pics of all time: (ebay photo example of what I'm talking about)
