Cocoa ❤s JoePa!

It's time for college football and my favorite team is playing this weekend - Penn State!!!  Growing up, we had no choice but to be PSU fans even though we lived very close to Pittsburgh.  I have lots of family who went there and I attended a branch campus for my Associates degree.  When I saw the Clean & Simple challenge for this week, I knew it would be a great sketch to show off Cocoa and his favorite team too!


Card details:
Stamps - Cocoa Football (SNS)
Cardstock - white, Enchanted Evening (PTI)
Accessories - nesties, copics, ribbon
