Cards in Envy - Rev It Up!

Welcome to an another Cards in Envy Challenge!  For this challenge we are to create an A2 sized card (5.5" x 4.25") that has something with an engine - like a car, truck, motorcycle or an airplane - the choice is yours.  Only requirement is that the card is 1/4" or less in thickness in order to fit in an envelope.

For my card, I chose to create a submarine.   And of course it had to be yellow - that way I could sing "we all live in a yellow submarine . . ." while it was being made.
