No story, life is hectic right now. I checked the story before work this morning and thought, and thought, and thought. I have NO sports stamps and just a couple of stamped images from a PB stamp I gave away. And then I remembered some freebie stickers . As the stickers are fabric I went for making a faux denim background for them.
Base fits a business envelope and is covered with orange paper, edges sponged with dark grey. Faux denim made using a piece of Bazzill, Typhoon and Admiral Bazzinks and ColorBox Frost White. I cut it to size and distressed the edges. Layered a piece of checkered paper behind because I just don't have the time to make a checkered flag. Added white stitching lines round edge and stickers, black Enamel Accents out the back of the exhaust, Styled Silver brads in the corners and a Dymo message for Bobby.

Great masculine card. Lots of us (including me) no sports stamps, so Mother Mark really did come up with a good challenge this week. I least I felt challenged! But I'm happy to see so many have managed to come up with these great cards without stamps in this week's theme.

Sabrina! It warms my heart that you are so determined to make a card for Bobby and can come up with something so cute without having the supplies you need! This is awesome and it will give Bobby such a lift to receive this card! I love it...I like the shape of it too....long and thin......like a fast race card! You did good girlfriend! Thank YOU
