You passed!

Hello lovely people,

I'm here to showcase yet more images from the upcoming LOTV release on 15th January...yes, more!

We have a couple of fabulous images of Jasmine and Oliver passing their driving tests, which will only be available as digi stamps and simply prints.

I thought I'd share both cards in the same post so first up it's Jasmine, and I appear to have chosen the same colour for her car as mine - lol!

I've used a similar style but different layout for the Oliver image, and used the shortened form of the sentiment.

I also appear to have chosen the same colour car for Oliver as Dr. Hubby's - lol again!

I think these will be really useful images to have in your stash, and don't be put off by colouring the car as it is broken up into sections so you can colour each one by one.  Also, my top tip is just don't print it too big; I printed these images at 5.5 x 8.5 cm, and the card base is 12.5cm square.

I also thought I'd share a little tip that I used when designing both these cards;

I wanted to mount the image onto a stitched rectangle but didn't have one that would leave the same width border all round the image, which would have irritated me!  So, I chose a stitched rectangle that was the right width and just hid the bottom end under the sentiment strip so you can't see that it is actually too long at the bottom.
