Here is my take on the Sketches In Thyme Challenge this week:
As you can see, I "boy-ed it down" quite a bit! No pretty scallops or flowers over here! I used some photos from the boys at an indoor race track in Arizona. To make my tires and racing flags, I used the Cars cartridge. In place of the pretty scallops, I ripped black card stock and used silver Tim Holtz alcohol ink to ink the edges. I used Blackletter for the font.
It is hard to see in these pics, but I also used mycuttle bug with my tread embossing plate for my silver photo mats.
I saw the sketch challenge today and was instantly motivated to create this layout!! Thanks Sketches in Thyme!!!
This is such a nice LO Lori! too bad I do not have boys, but maybe for my nephew! TFS
