Miss You Scooter
While I had my Gina K stamps out yesterday, I wanted to see if I could come up with a retro look to the scooter from the Are We There Yet? set. I think the colors in this Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday paper definitely have a retro feel.
Speaking of retro and aqua colored vehicles…my all-time favorite dream car has always been a 1955 aqua colored Thunderbird. Sigh. One day. And a cottage…at the beach…on an island…with a couple of cabana boys (one for you, Sherry). Yeah, right! A scooter… maybe!
I used my Labels One Nestabilties die for the 3 overlapping layers, and some ribbon, Prima & Heidi Swapp flowers and a decorative brad for the big girlie embellishment. The headlight and taillight both have glossy accents on them. No doubt, this card is not meant for someone of the masculine persuasion!
Thanks for stopping by to look!
Oh, and don’t forget tonight is the season premier of

Broni. this is Adorable with a capital “A”. You rocked it, girl!
As long as you have a spot for me to put my ass in the sand it’s all good! (and maybe I could just get an eyeful of the cabana boys…) I love your scooter…now THATS cute! Awesome coloring as usual.
Come to think of it…Patrick is not bad on the eye’s either….probably not bad on lots of things…
That is so cute!! I would love a scooter, but it would be an awesome pink! LOL… We could match tho as we rode into the sunset! LOL… I also loved the paper pieced camper yesterday! Great idea!
Okay now I know we are sisters . . . because my all time dream car is a 1955 T-Bird!!!!!! I would like aqua, but at this stage of my life, I’ll take any color. On that island we need . . . that car and that scooter! By the way I LOVE the car and don’t call me tonight cause my butt will be on the couch watching my fave show!!!!
AND I LOVE your new Banner!!!! Well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your card is just too cute! LOVE that scooter in those colors and the entire effect of the card is wonderful!
This turned out so cute, Broni! LOVE it with the Girl Friday papers! (Don’t forget a cabana boy for me!)
Oh lots going on with this post…Gorgeous card though.
Make that a 1956 Thunderbird for me (same color though) and that photo….drool!
Fabulous card!
Can’t wait for Grey’s tonight!
Great job! Love your colors and shading on the scooter!
Beautiful card, Broni! I love the color of this scooter! And your shading is fabulous!
what a FUN card! dang – I forgot about Grey’s (I hope I DVR’d it!!!)
Aqua is such a wonderfully retro color. So 1955! I know exactly the Thunderbird you’re talking about — an awesome classic. I might someday manage the scooter… I’d love a cottage, too. Would I have to talk to the cabana boys? If not, then I’ll take a couple of them, as well. Oh… super cute card, Broni!
Now this is soooo cute Broni!!! GREAT choice of colors for that oh so cute scooter!
