I'm trying to get some Father's Day cards done to post at my Etsy shop before the end of the month...can you believe it is already the 15th --- time sure does move fast. I've been in a retro grungy sort of mood lately (might be because I am under the weather) so some of the latest creations have a 50s feel to them. The Nifty Fifties Cricut Cartridge certainly has been very useful and has a ton of images I can't wait to use. A lot of cool images to cure your retro urges. I added some pearl glitter to the headlights for a little shimmer.
