    That is a great card Carri. Can't believe Cuttlebug makes a pattern like that. Very manly as anyone with a pick'em up truck would know. Love it.

    Those metal letters are really cool. I am trying to find some unique embellisments and those are perfect. Where did you get them? I found some other challenges. I added them to my sidebar, but I can send them to you. I love that Playful Feline since it list them everyday!
