Our lovely Bus Driver has been chosen as our Featured Stamper today, and no surprise here!! She is a woman who can do it all!!!
Took all day, but I went all the way back into her gallery - we are talking YEARS' worth of cards and she has a veritable treasure trove filled with so many different kinds of cards and in practically every style imaginable!! I loved what she did with THIS CLASSIC PICKUP TRUCK so I put a bit of a spin on it (since I only had Classic Convertibles) and especially since I could envision this fun-lovin' gal cruisin' in this 'Vette, with her hair blowing in the wind (and quite possibly, some dogs chasing after her, trying to score a new home with her family of fur babies)
This card in addition to honoring my sweet Sister, also is for the IC321 - Everything Turquoise - although there were no turquoise cars there - it was a popular color back in the day of this muscle car!
I used a different EF , and different colors from Shirley's great card , plus added crystal effects on the windows and lights and chrome - hope she likes her new wheels!!
LYMI, Sis!!

This card is a classy as the car is classic - love the turquoise and details of the EF in silver, and of course those perfectly placed 'screw' brads. A truly timeless beauty created with heart.

Oh Sue this is a super classic car themed card! I love that embossing folder and the screw brads! And turquoise was one of the top colors in the olden days! Even if it just seems like yesterday~the years sure go by quickly! A perfect case for Shirley! TFS

Greenie, love this! That car is just awesome and I too remember turquoise being a big color back when. With all of your details, this turned out to be a beauty. You did a wonderful job of honoring da bus driver with the shiniest halo!
