Birthday Girl

F1

I made this card for my Mum to give hubby on his birthday back in November and completely forgot about it.  Mum wanted a card with a racing car on it and the only one I could find was this download from CraftsUprint


I  cut out all of the layers and used foam pads for dimension.


I decorated the inside of the card and added a computer generated sentiment.


A really simple card to make but Mum was really pleased with it!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Crafting from the Heart Challenge 98 - Always Anything Goes
Craft Your Passion Challenge 298 - Always Anything Goes
