You're the BOSS on your Birthday

I created this card for my nephew's 16th Birthday.

His favourite colour is red, so of course I coloured this BOSS 302 Mustang in red.  Hubby was very particular in telling me where the black stripe goes, how the wheels should be coloured and the grill etc.  All in all, I'm pleased with how it turned out, but it was a bit stressful colouring it with a car fanatic's input.

The image is an old image from Fitztown.

Summer Fun

Sponsored by Lacy Sunshine
