Well, I needed to make a card for one of our drivers at work. He's leaving the company to pursue his career as a professional race car driver. I didn't have any race car stamps so I went to Michaels and found a wooden outline race car.
I started with GP White cs as the base. I used black bazzill cs and ran the CB Traffic Jam folder through it. I also layered a strip of yellow bazzill cs and red bazzill cs for the center. I then stamped the mini squares with black stazon on GP white cs. I glued the wooden race car to GP white cs. I colored the car with BIC Mark It markers. I layered with the same red and yellow bazzill cs. I added 2 silver screw brads to each corner. The image is raised with 3D squares.
He loved the card.

How sweet, _onnie, to create such a great card for someone leaving his full time job to pursue what I suspect is a life long dream. Too fabulous is this image, too. Looks like dynomite in the trunk. Yikes, I guess this departing coworker has one hot dream to make it big. Good for him.
