I found an awesome website that gives you the ability to create Mii characters on the computer. For non-Wii aficionados, Mii characters are digital avatars that can be created and customized to look like the person who is playing the game. So I went to this site and created a Mii for both of my sons and my dog. I then found an image of the exact flat screen TV that is sitting in my basement and cut/pasted the Mii characters onto it. Here is the result - it's going on the outside of the card...
I wish I could take credit for figuring out how to make the dog Mii, but a really creative person who obviously had a lot of time on his/her hands was kind enough to put the directions on the web...thanks!
Of course I wanted to get in on the fun too, so here is the image that is going on the inside of the card...
Here is the finished card - I mounted the images on a piece of shiny black cardstock paper...
And because I am slightly theme-obsessed, I created this image to go on the outside of the envelope - the "A" is made out of Wii controllers. Obsessions are never a good thing, but this is kind of cute...right?
Happy Father's Day - I hope you enjoy it as much as "Wii" will!
