Route 66

Happy Friday!!! What??? Day 3 of manly cards??? I just don't know what has gotten into me! ☺ I was totally inspired by my Daddy to make this card. He has even traveled all along route 66 in his classic cars in the past! I'm still making good on my vow to post a project from ALL of my cricut cartridges. For this card, I used the Cars cartridge. I actually only bought it because it was on crazy cheap clearance at Walmart, and frankly, I wanted the rewards points! LOL However, after going through the book I really like it! It has some really fun extras and word art too. But I digress...I used Cher {my Gypsy} to weld two signs together to make a shaped card. The numbers are from the Varsity Letter cricut lite cartridge. To finish it off I went into stitching overkill mode. I swear someone will have to pry my Sakura Gelly Roll Pen from my cold, dead fingers! I ♥ my white pen to the moon and back! I should actually say pens, because I have a stockpile! HEHEHE ☺

Have a FANTASTIC weekend!
