Patriotic Three Challenge Card and I'm A Top Pick !

It's no April Fool's Day Joke:

I'm happy to say that I was a Top Three Winner at Cardz 4 Guyz blog !

The Challenge was TRANSPORT,

that is an easy one for me since I make cards

with car images on them often.

fabulous design team projects as well

as the many wonderful submissions.

I just found out about this blog a week ago

while visiting another that had a link to it.

I had to jump right in with that Transport challenge.

The new challenge at the Cardz 4 Guyz blog is

Something Beginning With S.

Here is a card I came up with .

I ended up creating this particular card

to also work with two challenges currently at

Operation Write Home:

Red, White and Blue

and

Sketch Challenge 251

Follow the links above to see many great card designs.

Trying to show the dimension the embossing folders made.

The stripes are a bit difficult to see.

Here is how my card fits the S challenge:

STARS embossing folder

STRIPES embossing folder

STRIPS of card stock

STITCHING done with my sewing machine

SHIMMERY SILVER card stock

SKETCH challenge

I'll be donating this card to Operation Write Home.
