Flames Photoshop Guru's: Calgary Flames Money

I'm wondering if any of you photoshop experts would be able to help me out. I am a substitute teacher and have been working in a classroom for the last two months with a student who has behavioural challenges. He really enjoys working with money, and he is a huge Flames fan! He often struggles to get work done, but if we can relate his work to hockey in any way, shape or form, he then can focus and get his work done. One of the strategies that his classroom teacher uses with the students in her class is they can earn 'money' when they show acts of respect towards others. Once the class earns so much money, they choose a class reward (a movie, cooking, etc.).

I have worked closely with this student and the assistant who I am covering for has a signed Sean Monahan (his favourite player) hockey card that the student is allowed to have, but needs to earn. I remembered seeing a photoshopped $50 bill with Monahan on it, so I printed off some copies to use with this student to help him earn the hockey card. He was beyond excited when I showed him the Monahan $50. I haven't started the new reward system yet, as I wanted to see if anyone was able to help me out and photoshop a $5, $10, $20 and $100 bill with other players faces on it! I have zero photoshop skills, but some of the things you guys come up with are incredible.

If anyone (or a few of you) are able to help me out, my student and I would really appreciate it! Some of his other favourite players who could be used on the bills are Ferland, Gaudreau, Gio, Backlund, Bennett and Hamilton.

Here's a picture of what the Monahan $50 looks like:

Thanks!!

I think it's super cool that you're doing something like that. I have an autistic nephew who is obsessed with money, so I'll happily help here and then make a few of my own and see if I can use them as well to turn him into a hockey fan.

Here's my version of a Ferland $20.

Spoiler!


Edit to add this:
Really wanted to make it an 11 dollar bill, though.
Backlund $10

Spoiler!


I'll do some more for you later today unless someone else jumps on it. And shame to anyone who makes the $5 with anyone but Gio

Good for you for trying to go an extra mile! My wife works with behaviorally challenged kids from difficult homes/families, so I do relate and appreciate what you're trying to do.

Here's my $100 bill for ya!

I have no photoshop skills.

I do have an eye for a good teacher and you remind me of my Grade 5 teacher.

She was the best.

Oh my gosh these are incredible (and pretty funny)!! Thank you all so much!! My student is going to be so excited when I show up with a wallet full of money that he can earn to get the Monahan card he wants so badly!

I'm out at Schanks right now with a friend of mine who is autistic and also is a die hard Flames fan and he got quite the kick out of these! 😂

From my student, myself, his teacher and his school, thank you so much!!

i'm not really a photoshop guy, so i don't have any art to contribute, but i think a bunch of $1 bills with...
backlund
bennett
bouma
brouwer
bartkowski
brodie

would be sweet.... you'd have a bunch of <players last name starting with 'b'> bucks!

heck - even do a 'bearcat buck'


other denominations that work with the guy's numbers would be...
versteeg - 10
lazar - 20
