Life Is Too Short To Drive Boring Cars
Good Sunday morning all! I selected a printed paper from my craft stash, then found three colours of card to match it. I cut a wide strip of each of the three colours of card and taped them together from the back. I embossed them using the Brick Wall embossing folder. Next I cut a mat from the Looped Rectangles in black. Using the Double Stitched Rectangles, I cut a matching black frame and added it to the Looped Rectangle mat with mounting foam. I cut the Volkswagon from the Classic Cars die set out of the spotted paper. I added a piece of white card for the windows and used a fine tipped black felt pen to add in the details of the car. I added it to the inside of the frame with mounting foam. I stamped the sentiment from the Classic Car stamp set in black and matted it with a thin black mat. I added it beneath the frame with mounting foam. I cut two of the cog border from the Assorted Tool Border die set in black and glued them to the sides of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/4" in size.
