Pedal to the Metal is in the Occasions catalog and I don't think I've seen more than one card made with it among all the blogs I follow. Well, I bought it for Baby Luke's baby book since my brother is such a car nut, and this is the first time I've made a card with it so there you go.
I love this sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:
And I was inspired to pull out Pedal to the Metal by the challenge from the Paper Players:
Though I must say I think my card is a bit more CAS-plus. There's white space, but also some layers on there. (How do you like the oil splats from Geared Up Garage?)
Finally, I used the colors from CAS Colours & Sketches:
I almost did the monochromatic color challenge from Color Throwdown, but in the end I decided a cherry-red dune buggy was the way to go :)
We have rain, rain, rain for the third day in a row here, wish me luck keeping Ryan entertained. We've got an 80% chance of thunderstorms for the rest of the day. Stay cozy, y'all!
