Honestly...my first car

Hello all, let me tell you all about my first car today that I got in late 80's. It was as old as I was but a lot more beat up! Haha. My parents bought it for me for all of $250 and it was a big old olive green rust bucket. My dads theory is that it should be big so that I was safe if I ever got into an accident. It had big long seats and I could lay across the front seat and my feet probably wouldn't have touched the doors. I am pretty sure it didn't have a radio and if it did it was only am/fm no cassette tape. Yes I am that old that cassette tape was all the rage when I was a teenager.

Funny story I have not run across any photos of my car even though my dad has always been one to take random photos of things as well as people. He took selfies before they were a thing and he used to take photos of all of his cars, houses, garden. Maybe that is where I got my love of documenting and scrapbooking from. Anyway for as many times as he took photos of cars I can't find one of my first car so I found one on line and printed it. Mine was a little darker and a lot less shiny. Trivia: it is the same car as the cop car in Smokey and the Bandit.

Ok ok you have probably had enough random chatter here is my page. I used sketch #151 from Sketch N Scrap.

I have had these papers from Scenic Route - Garden Grove Collection (oh how I miss them) for an extremely long time maybe around 2009 or so? Anyway I have always struggled with this line it just has never really called my name. This line had all the right colors, I also pulled some papers from My Minds Eye, and Simple Stories (one of my favs) I started playing around and decided this was the one then I started adding a little of this and that, again super old embellishments from CTMH also from around 2009 and somehow someway everything just magically came together. This is one of my favorite pages that I have done this year which is amazing since I was very meh about this whole project at the start. Have you ever had that happen?

Here is Sketch #151 I would love to see your take on it.
