I got a text off my daughter this evening - she wanted a card with a car on it for her friend's dad who's a driving instructor, and she wants it by tomorrow!
To give me some ideas I browsed some current challenges and this is what I came up with . I created the circle base card on the Silhouette , cut out a circle of acetate and embossed it with a chevron embossing folder. The car stamp is by Printworks and I coloured it with markers, paper-pieced it and cut it out. The sentiment is by Hero Arts.

You made a nice mancard. I like the car!
Super cute car! I love that retro pattern paper! That is really great you could think of this idea given such little time to make the card! I rarely work well under that kind of pressure. TFS!
Just the right card for the person who will receive it. The shape is fantastic

She sure sets you some tasks! Brilliant card Marina!
Your daughter is keeping you on your toes:) But this is perfection; fab card Marina!
That is one super-duper card! I like the idea and the execution is great. The car is beautifully coloured and the window effect is stunning. I've never thought of embossing acetate before: it looks great. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber for our Anything Goes Challenge.
What a great quick make! Don't you love it when a relative says "you can make this tonight, right?" Been there done that! Very fun car card executed with a masculine twist. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber!
Wow great job on short notice. Such a cute card! Love that little car! Thanks so much for doing the RR challenge!
Well done coming up with a design so quickly and it's sooooo cool! xxx

Such a fun card - and good for you fitting in so many challenges with a time crunch too! I'm sure your daughter's friend's dad loved it!
