This is actually a triple challenge, today's sketch challenge, Teapot Tuesday, and a personal challenge to my MIL. We used the same image but made different cards.
My Christmas wish is to be with my DH in Wyoming, and this fast car represents how soon I wish that could be! Maybe by Christmas.
To paint the image I used twinkling H2o's, yellow stickles on the headlight, CE on the windshield and brads on the wheels. Behind it is DP and gold sponged spellbinders.
Inside it reads "It's your day, live it up"
Thanks for looking!

I am presuming the car is/was/would be the best Christmas present? Make it yellow, not red, and I'll be in the queue. Love how you used the Symbology elements. It's the only Spellbinders die I bought thinking I'd use a lot that has totally stumped me. Like the brads on the wheels, too.

Good morning, Bratty one! OMGosh Jamie, you threw down a challenge and I had so much fun!!! Aunt Muffins will love this card. I love how it represents 'freedom' and your Christmas wish to be with Jason in Wyoming. Sweet. Your car looks great and I love the flourishes too. You are getting too good, you know that? Ok, off to the WT- I challenge you! Love, Mom
P.S. Pay no attention to the crazy person (Giggles) up there. She is known as the Queen Nut! That means, of course, that she is my Queen! Lol! :twisted:

Wow Jamie what a great card, looks like your car has wings and is flying you over the rocky mountains to be with Jason I love how you have colored the car in especially those shiny head lights and I also love the blue head scarf. I was hoping you would both spend Christmas at bratty MIL and then travel to Wyoming together for the New Year, New Year New Home, New Life exciting or what.
