Formula 1 ?


Well when I saw the challenge at ReadySteadyStamp I had to wonder if I could do it,what I know about formula one and car racing could be written on a postage stamp!
I did have this stamp with a "vintage" racing car that I bought some time ago out of a bargain bin and the card evolved round it. background page from an old road map book,brooklands programmes downloaded from Google. Old touring map,driving licence and petrol coupons from my "hoard" of junk,scanned and resized.Journaling had to be typed as I could not fit it on if I wrote it, the car is embossed with utee.
Not been doing much crafting for the last couple of weeks, I have my sister here on a visit from California and we have been out and about.
