Choo Choo Challenge

This is my entry for Keesh's latest challenge. I'll show you the sketch first. It's a bit of a doozy.


Here's the card:



Now, I've used another of the new stamps sets from the Spring Mini. As soon as i saw it I knew I'd have to get it, especially as so many of my friends have little boys. It is called Choo Choo, and the tracks are actually a separate Stampin Around wheel, how cute is that. This is for my cousin's little lad, Byron, he turns 2 in September. I hope he likes it. Once again, I've turned a sketch on it's side. That way the green semi-circle could almost be a bit hill-ish. I've used the new single "Happy Birthday to you!" stamp, it is only$13.95. I've also used a chipboard '2' and covered it (and half my table) in orange supernova fine glitter. It is so much fun to play with.

Thanks for dropping by,

Love your card Fiona, very clever of you to switch the sketch around. This is such a bright, happy card, very cute....perfect for a two year old. And I just love the way you did the happy birthday in lots of colours, it looks perfect.
Enjoy your week.
