We're back with a new challenge on the Createful Heart Design Challenge Blog!

Our challenge in December was cancelled so I'm sharing the card I had ready for that challenge - it doesn't fit this month's theme so it's a case of 'do as I say not do as I do'!!

You can find all the details about the challenge and inspiration from the Design Team here on the challenge blog. 

Here's what I used to make my card:

- Bear Buddies digi stamp from Createful Heart Design available here

Today it's time for our first challenge of the year on the Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge Blog and this time we'd like to see trains, planes and/or automobiles.

I've gone for the trains part of the theme and I've chosen a topper and some background paper from an old issue of Making Cards magazine - I thought it was perfect for this challenge.

I layered it with some dark brown paper and added a stamped sentiment from Uniko to finish the card.
