Finally, my card for today's Sketch Challenge SC391! I started this card last night, but was too tired to finish. I was all psyched to finish this morning, but I burned my hand making my daughter eggs. It is finally feeling better and I was able to finish my card.
My husband's birthday is coming up and I have been trying to come up with something to top his birthday card from last year, Birthday Beers Cheers by fishymom at Splitcoaststampers. This fall, he fulfilled a lifelong dream of getting a Porsche and he and my son have spent months restoring it. So when I saw this set, I just had to have it!

Your husband will love this card. The one from last year was really nice too. Today is my hubbies bd and he got another guitar card. Guess it is better than a flower card.

I have this set - my husband has received roughly 27 cards using it (just kidding, but you know what I mean!) So nice to get some fresh ideas for using it. Gorgeous.
