Thank you Grammy!!

I am looking for a track and field silhouette for a friend. I think she wanted high jump, but I am not sure. Anyone have a collection of track and field SVG's, or know where some can be found?

I did see the thread about pop up cards, but the Sizzix dies have so many different designs, not all cards. They were very 3D. I'd make them myself but I don't have a head for how to construct them. I looked at the dies in my scrapbook store, but I just couldn't picture how they would work.
