Snail's Pace

There was this snail who wanted to be a Formula One racing driver. He went along to the track and asked if he could drive. The racing team manager said, 'Yes, but you can't have a number on your car, you can only have an 'S' because you are a snail.'

The snail was OK about this is so he entered the race. The race started and the snail's car was at the back...but suddenly he sped to the front, over-taking all the cars and won!!

As the spectators saw the snail speed past them, they yelled 'WOW! LOOK AT THAT S-CAR GO!!'



Yes I'm crafting at a snail's pace this morning - I didn't get up till 08.45! This week's LIM challenge is three shades of green and for my little entry I've used the required three shades on my little gastropod, added some buttons for the wheels and googly eyes.

I'm also entering my card into:

ATCs & Cards With Attitude - Anything Goes
Fairy Fun Fridays - Anything Goes
Samuel Taylor's Challenge - Green

Have a great Easter and thanks for looking!
