I Missed Again

I missed again - last weeks challenge at CD Sunday. So I was determined to get my card in on time this week and when I saw the subject it couldn't be better. I had to make a card for my cousin's husband who starts a new job this week working on the railway.  I totally forgot to take a picture of the finished card and posted it yesterday but luckily I printed a couple of extras from Joanna Sheen's Nostalgia Collection. I've washed out the image and printed straight onto the background card. The images are matted onto snippets of red card. I've put the main image to the right so that you can just see the train behind it with the three smaller images down the left. A very quick card as I had all the pieces ready.
