Our challenge is to make a card outside our comfort zone for John, who could use some cheering up while recovering from a recent injury. His hobbies include racing cars, camping, mountains, and puttering around in his garage working on his motorcycle and classic car.
As for the outside my comfort zone part - anyone remember Stampin Up Hodgepodge Hardware? I still have four almost full tins of the stuff in every color metal they sold (former demo here). Never felt comfortable using it on a cardâe¦still don't.
But while looking through my stash for things or ideas outside my comfort zone, and spotting these tins of hardly used hardware, I decided to use some on my card. And since this silver one kind of looks like a license plate, I thought, why not? That's when I decided to go with a classic car theme and personalize the license plate (hodgepodge hardware) with his name. Hope he likes it.

Oh, I love that metallic embossing in the bg - what a perfect EF and a personalized license to boot. Beautifully done on your custom color paint job on that car, too.
