Look Who Got Her License!

Last Thursday, our older daughter got her driver's license!  (Watch out, world!)
I surprised her with this card and a new wallet plus matching lanyard when we got back out to the car.  She was really pleased but of course questioned what I would have done if she hadn't gotten her license.  I just laughed and said, "Kept it hidden until you finally did get your license!"
 Because her car is gold, I started with a Champagne card stock base that I cut with the CTMH/Cricut Artfully Sent cartridge.  The car license plate actually is cut out to say #1 Dad, but I covered that portion with a handmade "license plate" using the Congratulations stamp from the CTMH/Cricut Artfully Sent sentiments stamp set.  I lined the windshield with a piece of B&T from the Wanderlust paper pack and then made the "road" with a strip of Chalk It Up B&T.  Before I added the White Daisy card liner, I used white shimmer trim for the headlights.  The parking lights are gold glitter gems.
On the inside, I stamped Congratulations again with Smoothie ink, added a strip of Gold polka dot washi tape, and the license plate zip strip from the Wanderlust paper pack.

She was thrilled!
