U R Cool

My son in laws birthday is tomorrow and they are home from North Carolina visiting for a week, so we are going to take him out for his birthday tomorrow, and so I thought I had better get his card posted today since I don't know how much we will be doing tomorrow.


I found this paper pack and when I saw the license plate was from North Carolina I decided to use this piece.  The torn strip is part of the paper too it is one piece, I just added a couple stamps and some nuts and gears to give it a mechanical feel.  My hubby didn't really care for this card, but I was trying to get it done before they came home, and I wasn't feeling well this day, but thought I would share anyway.  The card measures 4"x6"

Recollections -- Awesome boy paper
Studio G-- Sentiment stamps
Prima-- Tiny Junkyard findings trinkets (nuts)

My hubby has a bin with a bunch of pre cut gear dies, so I am not sure which brands they are.

I have an update about Dorcas, her husband said that she has fluid in the tissues of her lungs and just can't seem to get rid of it, and that he feels this is going to be a very long road of recovery.

Hope you enjoy a fantastic weekend,
Connie

Well, of course you had to have the license plate for your son-in-law! It's perfect! I'm sorry to hear your friend is still having a difficult time.

A really cool BD card, Connie. I know he loved it! How creative with the NC licence plate and the gears are a nice add with the great sentiment. A really wonderful male BD card!
