I admit it - I'm the only person in the US that doesn't follow NASCAR! This was hard for me - but I have heard of Dale Earnhardt Sr. So this is my tribute.
Background is an old quilting technique. It's a simple weave - black and white. You cut both the black and white in waves or ripples. As long as you keep the pieces in order they will weave with a ripple effect. I was aiming for a checkered flag effect - what do you think??
TFL!

I love your card ~ the background looks great. I wasn't expecting to see Dale while browsing the gallery, it was suely a nice treat to my eyes. He is the one man that I told my husband 15 years ago, that I would leave him for if he showed up at my door! ha ha.. sure do miss getting to watch Dale on Sundays.. course I haven't watched Nascar since February 2001. He was the only reason I watched in the first place. Your card is a wonderful tribute. Pam

The background is great as well as the rest of the card. I don't follow Nascar either, I saw a comedian once kind of poking fun at racing...Look, they're turning left, oh look, they're turning left again...
