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.

Neva, this really jumped out from the gallery. I am betting your brother will laugh out loud when he gets this one. I am saving it in to my favs for some unsuspecting family member.

I always think of the speed limit too, Neva. Love the highway concept and oh so perfect for the poor guy. It cant be good to know you're the same as the speed limit!
