Zoom...Zoom....


This is my new toy... I went to the big city this weekend and came back with this!!! It's so fun to drive. I wish I had more places to go. And the new car smell...Oh MY!!!
My husband and I decided we were tired of paying to get our youngest daughters, piece of junk car fixed. So we bought this so she can drive my old one. She was super excited ad well. Hers is constantly on the fritz. And doesn't get very good gas mileage. I'm hoping I won't have to hear mom I need gas money....Please!! :)



Now on to my card. This is the last one I needed to make for the raining cards on my Magnolia-lious group. I can't wait until it's my month!

It worked out perfect because this weeks challenge #25 over at Cute Card Thursday is "In The Water". I already had the image colored I just need to find a sketch to use. So I wondered over to Papertake Weekly and used the challenge over there for this week, Katharina's sketch #10. How cool is that.


I think this paper from Daisy Bucket is so cute!! It's just so bright and cheerful! I'm also really liking water coloring. I just need to find some really white water color paper now. The stuff I have says it's white but it's not. It's kind of an off white. If you water color your images what do you use? Where do you get it?
Oh and don't forget about the Reader Challenge over at the Scrapmagasinet DT Blog. You still have a chance to enter that. And then you can be entered into my give away too. Here's another sneak peak at the prize I'm giving away.
