COLD...Winter Day!

We have TERRIBLE weather in our neck of the woods today. Left work around 2:00, took twice as long to get home than normal. I'm so thankful I did get home without incident and so did my daughter! I prayed practically the whole way home for her safety!! I got home and saw a new challenge at CardzTV using Red, White and Black only! Thought about it a while and decided to give it a try. I have a friend that asked me to make some masculine cards for her to mail to her son in college......I draw a blank when it comes to masculine cards! SO I decided this one HAD to be masculine and get the ball rolling for my friend!

I used Nifty Fifties Cartridge for the car and Elegant Edges for the mats. I looked through the WalMart Valentine paper I recently bought and some papers from my stash and here is what I came up with. The car is cut at 1.25" for all the layers and the mat is 3.75" for the black, and 4" for the red print and white shadow. I added a 3/4" black strip and put white washi tape with red dots on it and then a strip of black & white twine on top of the tape. Little black buttons (I got from WalMart) in the corners and it's done. YAY!!! I like how it turned out....hope you do, too! The picture looks more orange in color, but I PROMISE it is RED!!!

 

Have a blessed day!!   Rebecca
