Hello, and welcome!
I have been so excited to get this posting done!
Why?.....because it is my first post for Card Crafter's Circle....woohoo!
There will be a new challenge, every Friday, and Pauline has lined up some fantastic sponsors.....
Our first sponsor is the wonderful
bugaboostamps.com and the Challenge #1 theme is
Our wonderful sponsors are giving the winner 7 digis of their choice, so click on the link, and enter one of your creations.......
My DT creation features a wonderful ol' guy........
Isn't he fun? His name is Gus, and you can find him by clicking on the above link......and there's a great SALE at the moment, so don't miss out!
This card is destined for SIL #2, who has a birthday on Sunday....he's only 35 but is an old soul, and I think he's going to love this old-timer....ha!
Everything is coloured up with Promarkers, and I printed 2 images, and layered another trike on top to give a bit of dimension........like a bit of dimension, me.......and some of the backing papers are embossed.......
The funky sentiment comes with the image....great deal, eh?
I used a wooden stick (pinched from Costa Coffee, heehee) to stick the sentiment on.......
Layered on to red cardstock and did a bit of faux stitchin' with white glaze pen......embossed the tan strip with a Cuttlebug folder, and more faux stitches.......there are even some real stitches on the panels, too.....
Little wooden star, to match the wooden stick, and poshed up with a button.......done!
I do hope you will pop over and see all the really great creations from the rest of the Design Team....you won't be short of inspiration, I promise....and link up to join the fun!
Hugs,

Fantastic card, Anne-Marie. I really like how you have coloured it up, and I especially like the 3-D effect of the little scooter. The star with button added is a brilliant addition! Totally brilliant, gal!
