This mail day was a little different for me! I had made some customs of Ron Tugnutt and I wanted to get them signed so I sent them off! All marks on the pictures are from my scanner bed.
I made two variations of a mask card. These were tough to do because I had to crop the mask from the original photo and clean out the bar area of the mask.
This card is my favourite by far! I will be sending out some of these to other goalies to have signed: mainly retired players, some junior players and lower level current goalies.
A nice 8 X 10! My Wal-Mart wouldn't print it out with the white border on the top and bottom. I think it looks nice anyways and you won't see it when I frame it.
For my heritage set! I did not know Tugnutt had a card in the set until someone sent it to me in a large trade for some goalie cards.
I'm not sure if people actually use the addresses I post, so I'll only post the addy I sent to if it's asked for!
great return!
ReplyDeleteand yes, I use the addys if I don't already have it...
Hey cool customs!
ReplyDeleteWhat did you use to print them?
awesome,I sent Tugnutt to the Peterborough Petes here he coaches.
ReplyDeleteI printed my customs on my Hp Photosmart all in one printer! I printed on a 4 X 6 photo sheet and printed the card actual card size. Then I cut the card out with an x-acto knife. I glue them onto decoy cards found in packs. Don't glue them on until after you have them signed. I found that the cards bubbled a lot while being handled through the mail when I glued it down first!
Very cool customs...I would love to make a few myself...I noticed your comment on my blog (collectingforkicks.blogspot.com)
ReplyDeleteThought I`d give your blog a look, and I have to say you got some pretty cool hockey sigs and baseball stuff!
Good Luck in the future!
