Birthday Wishes

Another beautiful Fall weekend, and I spent most of the afternoon inside making cards.  Sounds like lots of fun to me, although I know lots of people would think it a waste of a gorgeous afternoon.  Kind of like "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."  Anyway, I had a brain lapse this week and totally forgot my sister-in-law's birthday!  Luckily, I had a card in my stash that worked for her, but the pickings were pretty slim.  So, this card has no specific use except that it's a birthday card for a guy.  Gotta have those, too.

Challenges:
The Squirrel and the Fox #28--Things with wheels
Do You Stack Up #93--wheels
Viva La Verve October week 3--sketch
Crafty Ann's Challenges #76--black & white plus 1 other color

Supplies:
Stamps: Clear Dollar Stamps "Trans Am"; Verve "Birthday Phrases"; background stamp from Michaels
Dies: Spellbinders ovals, large; scalloped ovals large
Cuttlebug embossing folder (on the black layer)
