The snails are stamped with a Clearly Besotted stamp - I think the set is called "Cute as a bug", and the sentiment is an unmounted stamp I bought on ebay. I doodled in the trail using a Versamark pen, then embossed it with a gold-tinted hologram powder, which gives it a very realistic "snail trail" look when it moves around in the light. I hand drew the chequered flag, and doodled in the scrolls under the sentiment

I like the way you think, Jane!! That was a fun race! Here we have the Indy 500 and on the Tuesday after, I understand that the winners and runners-up of your shell game will be taking over the track to start their American tour!! Enjoy your day!! Hugs, Darnell
