My nephew, Braydon, just turned three and he LOVES Thomas! This week's sketch challenge,plus the Ways to Use it challenge to use stickers, were absolutely PERFECT for this card! The five panels for the sketch I cut from Close to Cocoa, stamped with the Weathered bg stamp in Chocolate Chip, sponged the edges and added brads. The scene behind the Thomas sticker was sponged using masking and reverse masking. The sentiment tag is also a sticker. Thanks so much for looking! Have a blessed day!

Oh my, what a fantastic card you have made. The railroad tracks look so good. I'm sure your nephew will love this. Great job on the challenges. This is super cute.

Love the use of the bg stamp behind the sticker so it looks like rr tracks. Very clever. Gives me an idea to use the same as fence on a horse card I'm working on. TFS

Too many stamps (gasp!), not enough time
