Sweet Rides


We have a Car Cube TP300G that makes the best mans card in short order.  Here I layered ochre card stock with black and white card stock that has been staded with a straw stamp pad.  Over this stamp Diamond Bar SE217E in black.  Stamp white card stock with two of the Car Cube blocks, color with color pencils or pens cut out and edge with black ink.  Adhere to straw layer just over the Diamond Bar.  Finish off with stamping Sweet Ride from the Sweet Rides quartet TP307F.  The card is always appreciated and admired.
