Rev Up the Fun!! Racing Car

Rev Up the Fun!! (Stampin' Up) is a fun set for masculine cards. I used the racing car stamp for my son's birthday card. He owns a silver/grey car, so I thought this image would be perfect for him.
* I used a colour scheme of black, red, white, silver and yellow. Stamper's Select White was used for the card base. 
* Two strips of black gingham paper were adhered to Pure Poppy card stock and then mounted onto the card front. The Rick Rack Border die was cut from yellow card stock and positioned on the center of each piece of gingham.
* A red star button (from my button stash) was added to the top panel and accented with red embroidery floss.

* The 'dust' was stamped along the center of the card front using black ink 
and then highlighted with a clear glitter gel pen.
* The racing car was stamped onto a small piece of cardstock with Versamark and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder. It was fussy cut and then added to the card with 3D foam dots. 
* The tires were stamped onto Soft Stone card stock with Versamark, heat embossed with black EP, cut and glued to the original image.
* Finally the number panel (using the tiny numbers from Postmarks) was stamped onto a yellow circle and also added for a touch of colour.
* The sentiment panel was made with Fabulous Frames stamp and die. The sentiment was stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with black EP.

Inside
I used more of the black gingham with a red trim on either side. 
Yellow card stock was used to cut a Double-ended Banner Die and 
then the sentiment (Stylish Sentiments: Birthdays) was layered on top.
