Need card help please!!!

I just became a demo and I am doing an informal open house when people can just come and make a few cards (probably a Father's Day and Graduation). Most of the people that will be coming are new stampers and don't have much experience (and often much patience). I have attached a sample of the first one I tried. I think one thing I will change is that I will use twine instead of linen thread. Please give me honest opinions and feedback. I tried to do a shadow type effect with the car. Is it too blurry?

Oops, don't look yet. It hasn't been approved.

Okay... it works now

I think it looks really good. How do you do the shadow effect?

Nice! if you are feeling brave maybe add 2 black eyelets in the right hand corner? But I think it's smiple enough and nice and masculine!

I think it's great. Simple enough for beginners but still looks complex. How did you do the shadow? Stamp twice with different colors?

I actually used my stamp-a-ma-jig (first time). I stamped with creamy caramel then slightly moved the smj down and to the right. I then stamped with forest foliage. I did the same thing on the tag.
