CAS-ual Fridays #67: Banners & Flags

Used a new (to me) Paper Smooches stamp set called "My Guy" to create a birthday card for one of our friends who looooves classic cars.  Next Friday we are all going to the Grand Prix Festival in Watkins Glen, NY.  They actually let the participants "race" their classic cars on the original 6 mile road course and we will see lots of cars similar in style to the one I used on my card!  So fun to see the drivers of these cars wearing racing goggles with their neck scarves fluttering in the wind :)


Did a combination of coloring and piecing on the car.  Used a silver gel pen on the chrome parts and some stickles on the lights.  Created the "road" by using a Cuttlebug embossing folder.  Sentiment is from Paper Smooches "Sentiment Sampler" set. 
Other Materials Used:  Stampin' Up cs, Bo Bunny pp, My Mind's Eye Life of the Party pp. Doodlebug Designs bakers twine, W R Memory Keepers corner rounder

Since I did use a flag banner in my design I'm linking this up to the current CAS-ual Fridays challenge:

This card is perfect for the challenge - great details and flutter! Love the road! Brings back memories of my Dad and Uncle going to the races in Watkins Glen.....back in the 1950's! Great style for a special guy.
