Geared Up GaraGE

Happy Friday everyone!

Are you ready for the weekend, and for the normal work week, and weekend.  I love the holidays, but I am always ready to get back into the normal routine.  It seems we function better when there is a routine.

My card today is using the new Geared up Garage stamp set and thinlit dies in the Occasions catalog on page 43.  If you have any type of men or boys in your life this will be a needed group for you.  It has the car, the tool box, oil can, assorted gears  and a smudge stamp that could be the oil smeared on the floor, or the black smoke coming from the car when its revved up.   Everything that the man or little boy in your life loves.

I started off with a basic black cardbase 8.5 x 5.5 and added a piece of Neutrals DSP paper, 5.25 x 4.  I then used a piece of Basic Gray 4.75 x 3.5. The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Wood Words set and stamped in Basic Black ink.  The tool box is also stamped in the Basic Black ink.  I then used the Black Foil paper and die cut the large gear set.  I added 3 other gears that were die cut from the silver foil.  This card was so quick and easy to put together.  The guys are going to love these cards when they get them.  Stay tuned for more to come from this stamp set.

Have a great weekend and I hope you get to do some stamping.
