Thank You Bus Driver

The end of the school year is so hectic that I always forget to give our bus driver a thank you card or just run out of time.  So this year, I decided to make one in the beginning of the year for Mr. John!  Once school starts next week, things will be crazy again and time will fly by.  Which reminds me, I must get started on Christmas cardsLaughing.  I see so many people make such cute cards with different shapes, so I tried to do that with this card.  It sorta looks like a bus, right?  I used More Mustard Card Stock (100946) and ink (103162) for the card base, sponging the  ink around the edges.  For the windows and wheels I used Basic Gray (121044).  Circle punches are my friends – the 1-1/4″ (119861) and 1/2″ (119869) for the wheels in Basic Gray with the 3/4″ (119873) in Whisper White (100730) behind the wheels. The splash of Whisper White on the wheels and under the text really brightens up the overall card.  I used a corner rounder in various places to soften the corners.  The Real Red (102482) letters where cut with the Many Thanks Sizzlet  (115972) and my Big Shot – so easy.  It still looks a bit plain – I suppose I could add more details.  But at this point, I’m happy to have a card ready to go.  If I think of anything else to add, I still have a bit of time to do so.  And if I do add more detail, I’ll be sure to post an updated photo.
