Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 187! (TSSC187)

I have a fun and easy sketch for you to try this week.  And it fits well with the special that Stampin Up is having this month on their beautiful designer papers.  If you guy three you get one free.  So needless to say I have lots of new papers to show off and this sketch is perfect.  Don't miss the deal--talk to your demo--or ask me if I am you demo or if you need a demo!  You won't be sorry!  Here is the sketch....






And of course my sample...




I have to say, I really liked this card, but I showed my hubby and he thought the car looked silly.  He said it needed a road or it should be a different color?!  Hmmmm, what do you think?

Stamps: Need for speed, Perfect Words
Paper: Not Quite Navy, Cajun Craze, River Rock, Whisper White, Well Worn DP
Ink: Basic Black, Not Quite Navy
Other: Markers

Can't wait to see your samples.  Remember you can add the code to your blog while in the edit HTML mode and the hop will show up on your blog too!  Then your friends can play along right from your blog!

Have a great week!

My first reaction was Wow! what a great male card- but I can see what your DH means- could you mask it and sponge in a bit of black/grey to represent the road and "ground" the car a bit? It's great though-I think your DH is maybe fussier than most- my DH would just see the car!!

Excellent card Mary Jo! I like Robin's idea of sponging a little road in there. Oh...you husband probably just wants a bright red one! (Just kidding!)

This is my first time participating in your challenge. I wasn't sure if I had to use Stampin' Up! products or not. My card doesn't use anything SU!, so I hope that is OK. If not, I'll know for next time. Thanks for the challenge and the sketch!
