This is for today's FEATURED STAMPER - akronstamperdpk. Just 1 challenge today. I needed a birthday card for my Brother. I am always ragging him about how old he is, and I can do that since he will always be 3 yrs older than me. This year he turns 55 adn when I realized it all I could see was a speed limit sign. LOL. Then I found this HAPPY WEDDING DAY CARD and was inspired to create the speed limit sign that was in my mind with the black and white colors. I changed the layout, the theme, left off the ribbon and brads and cuttlebug layer. I stamped the numbers in versa mark then heat embossed with black ep. I used my white signo pen to draw the highway on the black layer. The 55 sign layer is popped up. I am putting it in the mail tomorrow. Hope he likes it.
