When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

The need for Speed!

What a beautiful day! Just wish I could enjoy it more, but my conditions are really bad at the mo and stopping me from doing many things, including walking properly.  So frustrating but I battle on and manage, just a case of having to.  Anyway I wanted to post my entry  for the Glitter Geeks challenge, week 4, Speed! I recently made this card for my friend's little boy as he loves F1 so thought I'd share it with you as well as entering it for the challenge.

I used MCS 'Meny-y happy returns' CD-ROM to create this one. Making my own decoupage by printing multiples of the car and cutting to suit my idea of what looks okay!
As you can see I personalised it for Harrison.  I also printed onto watercolour card to get a different texture to the background and image.

Anyway hope you like it. Take care Zo x
