The front squares are punched out and the football is stamped on the inside of the card.

Punched Tulip Mother's Day Card

 
I had a lot of fun with this one!!   My Stamping Group made this last year as a Mother's Day card.   

We used the SU Ornament Punch and cut the bottom piece off to create the vase.   The tulips and stems were punched with the SU Two-Step Bird Punch.
