I Created a Custom Fingerprint Card of Jose Canseco

I've been wanting to do this for YEARS! Several months ago, a buddy of mine picked up a couple baseballs from Carlos, one of Jose's closest friends (a friend of mine as well). Much to my excitement, they had a a fingerprint on them in green ink of the 40-40 man.

I've had the baseballs for several months now, and finally got around to creating it. Here is what it looks like along with the ball I haven't done anything yet with!

    How did you get the curved surface of the ball to sit flat in the card?

    That is one of the hardest things to do - this piece wasn't, as it wasn't curved much, but these were a bit of a pain :)

    For the fingerprint card, I actually glued it to a flat backing so it would lay flat instead of pop up.
