You're A Real Classic

 Hello there my crafty friends!  I started todays card by embossing a piece of silver mirror card with a stencil (I cannot find the name of it, so sorry!)  I cut the Mini Cooper from the Classic Car die set in red and added some white stripes on the hood (bonnet for my UK friends) and coloured the tyres with a marker.  Behind the Mini Cooper, I made a UK flag from blue, red and white card.  I cut the You're A Real Classic saying  out of cobalt blue card and added it on to a white shadow backing piece.  I added it below the car with mounting foam.  The card was completed with red, white and blue mats and layers.  The finished dimnsions are 7 1/2"  x  7 1/2"  in size.

  10. Hi Sue, I liked this card on launch and thanks for making the union flag (just missing a few white lines to be correct but a good try) as the mini is just so British.
