KAPOW !


Who doesn't love the movie Cars?! I have a little boy in my class who is turning 5 this week and he loves the movie...So...I thought I would whip him up a birthday card using my Cricut "Cars" Cartridge. Sounds easy peasy right? Wrong! It took me two hours of manual labor to make it look like this. I couldn't get my machine to cut my colored card stock, it kept on ripping it! So I finally used heavy white card stock and colored all the parts before putting them together! My background was done with water color paper and paint. I like how it turned out and I hope he loves it cause it was a labor of love for me! Leave me some lovin' !
I am entering this in the Cricutters Anonymous Challenge #29 which is to make a man themed card...
