I haven't forgotten about you! Thanks for checking in though! I first want to thank each of you that came to my HUGE stamp sale! What fun!!! I have stuff left and will leave it out over the next little bit if you're coming by for classes and then it'll be away until the second HUGE stamp sale!!!
This was a fun card to make! The Splitcoast challenge on Thursday was to use chipboard and Friday's challenge was to make a card with NO stamps! So, this is what I came up with for both challenges.
The chipboard "n" is actually covered in fabric from one of Nathan's first sleepers! I adhered it using sticky strip! Isn't this a fun way to keep a favourite fabric or memory alive!!! Wouldn't this be FABULOUS for a scrapbook page or title???
Then I created the car using my Coluzzle. I just cut partial circles of different sizes for the top and bumpers of the car that match the fabric.
The words are an SU rub on, the wheels are circle punches, and the door handles were made with the horizontal rectangle SU punch. The dots around the outside are free hand and just follow the idea of the cars on the fabric! So, what do you think? Hope you have a happy Mother's Day tomorrow!!!
This is super cute. I love the idea of the sleeper fabric!!! Good Job!
