Whatever paths life takes you down, I truly hope you that you enjoy the journey. Life certainly has its way of throwing hurdles in our way. I've found that my faith is what gets me through those difficult times. I also enjoy my crafting time as a way to relax and unwind from the stresses of life. Your path may be different from mine, but it's always good to make the best of our situation and enjoy the ride, right? Today I'm sharing a FUN card that I created for CutCardStock using more of their fabulous cardstocks.
The base of this card was cut from Astrobright Eclipse 80 lb. Black Cardstock. The second layer is Classic Crest Natural Cardstock, and the third color you see is the Lessebo Salt Water Blue Cardstock. I did some stitching around the frame using Solid Black Baker's Twine. The cute car die is from Poppystamps..jpg)
The details around the grill (bumpers, light covers, grill, etc.) were cut from DCS Dolphin Gray Cardstock. The headlights (yellow) were colored with a marker, and that cool looking windshield was cut from a small piece of thin vellum. The high quality of the cardstocks from CutCardStock made it easy to piece together my car (or any detailed die-cut) because these papers are thick and sturdy..jpg)
Thank you again for visiting me here. I'm also sharing this card on my Instagram Page if you'd like to visit and Follow me there as well. It would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime, I hope you'll at least stop by CutCardStock to look around at all their wonderful cardstock. It really is some amazing high-quality paper that I truly enjoy using. Have a great week, creative friends.

Very cool car, love the color you chose for it, like the stitching around the frame!
ReplyDeleteI agree, we must enjoy the ride and be grateful for our blessings. I've learned over the course of a year how life can change and in spite of everything, I'm still able to enjoy my ride. Great card Karen, Thanks for joining us at The Paper Funday Challenge, we hope you will join us again soon.

A wonderful card Karen - the card fits the sentiment perfectly, and I love the 'frame' the black twine gives to the feature panel
