You're A Real Classic

Hi there my crafty friends!  I went digging in my scrap pile and found some tan, slate grey and dark brown strips to use.  I added them to a larger piece of white card and laid down the strips until about half ay across the card.  I cut  the Double Stitched Rectangles in black and white and matted them together and added them to the middle of the card.  I cut the Tyre Tracks in black and glued them across the white mat.  i cut the Vintage Car out of Brushed silver card and added it with mounting foam.  I cut the cog border from the Assorted Tool Borders out of black card and glued it to the left side of the card.  I cut the You're A Real Classic sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing piece.  I attached the sentiment to the top of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another lovely man's card, I can think of at least 4 in my family and friends who I could send this too, so pleased I got the dies.

Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
