Individual Sports Cards

This is something I learned how to do recently.  I found a tutorial online that was recommended by Scott Kelby...he is awesome by the way...and I really like the effect!

In this first one, I downloaded a free texture background from the internet.  I ended up not liking the download, because it was not a great resolution...so for the second and third ones, I did a photoshoot at Home Depot to get some better quality textures!  I spent 45 minutes in the store taking pictures of flooring, counter top, tile, and other building supplies.

  The textures on the girls's cards is from Home Depot!
