Hey everyone. First post but I have been a lurker on here for quite awhile. I have another project I have been wanting to post for awhile, I just need to photograph it.

This is the card I made for my wonderful wife for V-day. I am hoping she likes it!

A little about the card:

- No printing used, just diecut
- Made with Neenah classic crest solar white with a red columns duplexed inside (so this is all paper, even the red which has a vertical texture to it, no ink on here at all)
- 120# Cover weight paper, heavy duty.
- Handcut

A little about me. I am a graphic designer and photographer in the midwest and do a lot of crafty projects on the side. I mostly work for lawyers, so I've got to keep up the personal projects to keep my sanity.

I am late on the game for this V-day but I am thinking of selling these. I have a Robotic cutting machine and tested it out this morning. So they would be precision cut, not hand cut by me. If you are interested you can drop me a message. Works great for any day of the year to let your significant gamer know you love them.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks everyone. The card went over great. When I have a bit of downtime I am going to do a few more tests with my robotic cutter and see if i can pop a few of these out.

After my tests last time i ended up with a lot of the cutouts, so i know have a health meter stuck on my imac as well. If i was more ambitious i would make them magnetized, my coworker said I should take them off as the week drags on.

this is the best Zelda card i've seen.Even though it doesnt have a big triforce, or a link ,any real LoZ fan knows what it is. Its subtle , simple and I love it! great job!

I wasn't going specifically for Zelda, but if that's what you see, excellent. That is the great thing about simplicity, each is able to interpret as they please.

Sad to admit it I was never a big :link fan. One of these days I should go back and give it a whirl.
