The idea of an 8x10 cut is genius to me. Never thought to go big. Inspiring work!

I really like making big cuts because they look awesome in frames. I have a room filled with framed cut auto 8x10's. I almost like them better than cut autographed cards because they display nicer.

I may have to follow suit in that idea, all I have is a binder with all of my cards.

The other great thing about making the bigger cuts is that you don't need to add a back. I just make an opening in the design and tape the autograph piece to the back allowing the autograph to show through the window. Then frame it.

Well now that I tried my hand in the custom auto patch booklets I decided to make a Harmon Killebrew commemorative patch and cut auto booklet. I think this turned out pretty sweet.

Amazing. Absolutely stunning.

Thanks Paratan21. I have been debating on whether or not I should make a Kirby Puckett one as well. I got his autograph on his fleer rookie when I was a kid and the edges on the card have some slight wear, so i was debating cutting out the autograph.

Looks amazing. Wish I could do that.

Thanks soc4yankees.

With the way these are looking, I would totally go for the Puckett, personally.
