Zoom!!!!


Yes, I would love to be scooting around in a little red convertible! That would mean two things, the weather has finally warmed up and I also came into a huge inheritance.
 More likely the weather will warm up!
 In the meantime I can dream. 
I had so much fun coloring this Kraftin Kimmie image with copics. I added some Ranger glassy glaze to the windshield and headlights. Layered the image on some Spellbinders elliptical die cuts. 
Then I airbrushed the background.
I added some enamel dots and the "Zoom" to some fishtail cut outs!
I am entering this card into the Kraftin Kimmie Anything Goes Wednesday Challenge.
