I made this card for my husband's uncle. I thought a classic car just fit. The ribbon was an absolute find....I stumbled upon a new scrapbooking store, and went there on a whim (a dangerous path....) and happened to walk into their semi annual garage sale, where people (I think mainly the instructors there) sell off their excess supplies. I picked up this ribbon (brown with teal and cream paisley pattern) and what was easily $200 dollars worth of used rubber stamps for $40. And a few Copic markers (not part of the sale, full price....I swear a drug habit would be cheaper), signed up for a Copic marker class....Maybe I could sell the house and live in my car in their parking lot (just kidding honey). The image is from the Heritage cartridge.

That's a nice little creation you made. Cars, vintage cars in particular, are quite picturesque, don't you think? Their unique shapes are quite appealing, which is one reason why people love driving and automobiles. They make good art as well.
