All Geared Up To Celebrate
Hello there my crafty friends! I used the Steampunk Gears Stencil and embossed the design into a piece of milk card. I used Antique Linen and Tea Dye Distress inks. I sponged the Tea Dye around the edges of the card, working towards the centre with the Antique Linen ink. I cut the Cog border from the Assorted Tool Border die set out of Brushed Silver card four times. I glued them around the edge of the card. I cut the Vintage convertible from The Vintage Car die set out of Cobalt Blue card. I used a fine tipped felt marker to add the detail to the car and a black and silver marker to colour the tyres and headlights. I added some white card behind the windscreen and added the car to the card with mounting foam. I cut the All Geared Up To Celebrate out of cobalt card and glued it to a white shadow backing piece. I added it above the car with mounting foam. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size.
Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a fabulous sample, I have these dies so can make this one easily, perfect for so many occasions, not necessarily for a male card. I have an image in my head of a pink car driving along the highway.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Great card with the lovely vintage car and cogs I'm sorry I didnt post comments on your new Christmas die launch but as I only make cards for family and friends I felt I wouldn't be a worthy winner of the dies and it would be better for someone who would use the dies adequately to have a better chance to win them Having! Having said that the collection is fabulous my favourites are the snowflake ribbon and Crystal Kaleidoscope
