Thanks Beth for your selection of Speedy Stamper as this weeks FS90! I literally got lost in her gallery last night...there are so many wonderful, artful cards. In the end I settled on this one!
I was intrigued with the technique which lead me into my underused photoshop elements. I fiddled for hours with the photo my DS, Sam took last summer on his very first road trip to Cali. And while I did get quite aways from SpeedyStampers original, it was the inspiration of her vintage card that was the catalyst for my creation. So for all that I learned, I thank you!
I've got more details on my blog Thanks so much for looking and leaving a comment.

Oh this is the epitome of super cool! Love that picture of your big boy, and all the fun cars! And of course all your fun elements like the adventure, the sentiment, and the license plate...perfectly artful as always!

WOW, what a great photo collage design! Yes, he is mighty handsome too! How come he didn't come and visit me while he was in sunny CA? Guess you'll just have to make another road trip with him soon!

I agree that this is a fabulous photo collage to memorialize your son's trip to CA (and, yes, I agree he is handsome, too!). I've never tried anything like this, and I just love all the cool elements with the license plate and the VWs....and everything, Susan!
