I made this card for the Teapot Challenge "Make it Move" for John, who is feeling blue lately missing his wife who passed one year ago.
I made an easel card with a "Woodie" car from dies. I stamped my greenery in the windows and around the sentiment, added some gold highlights and fussy cut my puppies from some designer paper. The popped up sentiment hold up the car, which folds flat to mail. I hope my card will bring a smile to John's face when he receives it.

The original (real wood) woodie wagon went out of production when I was 2 BUT I do remember the FAUX Woodies in the 60's & 70's. This card brought a smile to my face and lots of memories - I bet it will do the same for John, who is just enough older than me to remember more of the REAL thing!

Winner for sure! This card is adorable and using the woodie die for the shape of the card was brilliant. Love the foliage peaking through the car windows -- those little extra details add so much to a card. And those super cute pups just exude happiness and kindness. Perfect with your sentiment. Fabulous card.
