You're A Real Classic

 Hi there my crafty friends!  I selected the background piece from the my background stash pile.  I created it using Teal Wash and Aqua Lagoon Pixie Powders.  I cut three of the cog borders from the Assorted Tool Borders die set and cut them out of Brushed Silver card.  I glued them to the bottom of the card.  I cut the screwdriver border out of black from the same die set and glued it across the card above the silver borders.  I used the Double Stitched Rectangles and cut a multi-layered frame.  I used a wider white base and added a thin black frame on top.  I used mounting foam to add the frame to the top of the card.  I cut the Vintage car out of both black gloss card and white card.  I used the white die cut as an offset shadow behind the card, then attached it inside the frame using mounting foam. I cut the You're A Real Classic sentiment out of black card and added it to a white shadow backing piece.  I added it to the bottom of the card with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  X  9"  in size.  


All for now. Sue x

A great post for the car lover and you can switch in any of your car dies. Same with the background, a gorgeous colour and easy to change for the recipient. Love as is but as usual the design can so easily be manipulated. We need more vehicles…

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, fabulous card sample today, your so clever to think up all of these, and yes can we have more vehicles. The tool and Cogs are a fabulous set, I am so pleased I purchased them.

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

Good Morning Sue and all that visit this morning.
A fabulous man card this morning. And I can see a pixie powder background here. Pixies were a life saver to me a few weeks ago.... I had been asked to make a card using a royal blue background. I looked in my card stash and .. none there. Omg what do I do. Ahhh Midnight Blue pixie. I made three sheets. And off I went. So always a great item to keep handy. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well everyone 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
