Today's TLC265 challenges us to reach back to a childhood memory. Well, I'm reaching waaaaay back to sweet-16. (Yikes!) This is a replica of my girlfriend's burgundy Mustang. She worked & saved until she could buy her own car ... I think she was the first in our HS class to have accomplished such a sweet goal. It had a 3-speed stick on the floor, and I was blessed to learn how to drive a "stick" with one-on-one lessons from Joyce! Hot dawg!!! I think she "needs" this card. *wink*
Stamps are from Rubbernecker Stamps.

Oh baby, that's one sweet muscle car for sure. Your friend will just love to have a card make to remind her of her first car ... a burgundy mustang! what a great idea.
Oh, you've just dated yourself when you used the term 'a 3 speed stick on the floor" Yikes, Tex, it's now a 5 speed!
I dont think they've used that term 'on the floor' in probably 40 years. Not that I remember the phrase myself, but I know my parents' friends used to use that phrase and we all know how old they are, dont we?

What a great card. One of my boyfriends had that '67 Mustang fastback in British Racing Green. What a flash car!! We celebrate our 40th this year LOL (must have been the flash car!!)

Bev, you sure colored that car mighty well. This is just awesome. You know, back in the day the cars we or our parents bought us when we were 16 were in the 2 to 3 hundred range. Today prices are much higher! I'm on the hunt for DS a car. Not fun...or cheap. Love your card! Awesome colors too! TFS :0)
