Come on and take a {thrill} ride..

Tuesday already?? Wow! Where did that come from? Sometimes the days just fly by and in the wise words of Ferris Bueller, Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. So here to share a card today that actually is more of a scrapbook page in miniature, capturing one of my most treasured experiences captured on film as of late...

These people right here are so special to me! You've got my two home-girls up front who never stopped laughing and squealing during the WHOLE 45 minute ride session. The master of all things motorized, fun, and thrill, my one and only bigger than me "little brother" at the wheel and riding shotgun on the most uncomfortable metal bar rack (ouch!) is my sweet SIL , Traci! Yep, she's as cool and fun in real life as she seems on her blog :) My girls just love spending time with their "Zio and Zia" and this little card was to thank them for some crazy cool fun the other night.

Almost all of the elements on this card are from Mari Koegelenberg's August Grab Bag at the digichick boutique. The cool background prints, the bingo card, the vintage ticket, the graph paper circle with the metal star.....LOVE it all! Very cool, too, that the bingo card had the number 4 at the top available for me to highlight with a simple punched circle ring with bling!

Thanks so much for dropping by. I hope your day is filled with as much laughter and joy as you see on these faces!

Yep, that is us trying to be cool with our nieces before they get old enough to see right through it! I love this card. It is very proudly displayed at the house. I love the muted colors and the way you added the twine and some bling. The card is awesome, the family time was awesome. So glad someone brought their camera...cause I didn't.
