Vintage Car

Hello!  This card was made with a digital image that I saved from TLC Creations.   I printed the image on white CS and added some highlights with Silver Metallic Marker. I stamped sentiments from Heartfelt Creations and Flourishes with DOI Vintage Photo. I attached this to a card base of Brown CS.  When my DH saw this, he identified  it as a 1930 Cadillac.  This will be an anniversary card for my DH in October.

Car of My Past


Hello! 2 Cards! 1 Stamp!  I used Repeat Impressions Corvette stamp (bought in 2014) with different inks and techniques. The top card was stamped and inked with Distress Oxide ink and embossed with clear EP to give a shiny texture.  Added accents with Metallic Silver and Markers.  Finished with Pattern Paper and a Oyster Pearl card base. The car on the second one was stamped with Memento Toffee Crunch ink on white CS and placed on an argyle pattern paper and an ecru card base.
Challenges:
The House That Stamps Built: Anything Goes Challenge S2717
Retro Rubber Challenge: #72 Hit the road Jack! Use any mode of transportation on your card and at least one old stamp.  I have had the Corvette stamp at least since 2014.

In the late 70's-early 80's , we had a Corvette the color of  butterscotch with white leather interior.   This stamp reminds me of that fun car.

Happy Birthday, Jacob!


Welcome!  My great nephew celebrates his 3rd birthday next week.  I have fun making cards for him and his brother and always try to personalize the cards with a special touch.  I decided to use my Cameo to make him a car shaped card using a Silhouette cut file designed by Lori  Whitlock. I added brads to the tires and door and used metallic texture cardstock for the lights. The car was cut from Red, White, and Black Cardstock  and the windows are Glossy White CS. I added Jacob's picture to the window. Isn't he the cutest?  I made the banner sentiment and inside message using Print Shop to print.  This card is A2 size so it fits in a regular envelope.  I hope Jacob likes his card....don't all 3 year old boys love to play with cars?

Challenges to enter:
Craft Your Passion Challenges: Father's Day/For the Boys. Any male themed card/project you create is acceptable for this challenge
Papertake Weekly Challenge: For the Boys
Cute Card Thursday: Challenge is So Macho!

Summer Time Drive


Hello!  The  Designer’s Choice Challenge 521 at the House that Stamps Built hosted by Deonna is   to create cards with a monochromatic color scheme.  For my blackish card, I have chosen the Repeat Impression stamp of a Corvette that I stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink on white cardstock and trimmed with Nesties Oval die and placed on a Black Scallop Oval mat cut with Nesties Die. This was attached to Black and White Pattern Paper from Fancy Pants which I embossed with Cuttlebug EF Tiny Bubbles. Added a Black and White Stitched Ribbon and rub-on stickers from stash before placing on black card base.
Challenge:

Road Trip

Second Post :
I am still playing with travel theme cards....maybe thinking of all the traveling done over Memorial Day weekend.  I recently received Doodle Pantry Classic Cars 2 digital images and could not wait to use the Ford Ragtop Image.  I printed and fussy cut the red car and used with some old  Paper Pizazz road map paper.  I used orange Core-dinations canvas texture as card base layered with a red textured card stock, then the pattern paper that I embossed with Cuttlebug EF Tiny Bubbles. I lined the road with a narrow Satin Orange ribbon and added the car with pop up foam. Finished with a sticker from Creative Imaginations.  Thought this came out rather colorful.

Challenges:
Crafty Ribbons Challenge: Theme is Drive Time with ribbon
Simon Wednesday Challenge: Theme is Vacation/Travel
Paper Crafting Journey: Theme is For That Special Man... my special man loves convertibles and travel
Crafty Catz Challenge: Embossing....used Tiny Bubbles EF


Wishing everyone a happy and safe Memorial Day!

Spring Road Trip

Hello!  Spring weather brings the urge to take road trips.  The challenge at One-Layer Simplicity this month is Road Trip.  I thought my stamp from Lili of the Valley of James driving his convertible would be perfect for my one layer card. This car reminds me of my DH's convertible so I colored it to look like his.  I stamped on GKD white Cardstock with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with Copics E0000,30,33,35,50 ,  Y26,28, N2,4,and 7.   Also used Gray pencil, Metallic silver Jell-ink pen and Glossy Accents.  Found the perfect sticker from Creative Imaginations to complete my card.  A most often asked question on our trips is "Are we there yet?"
Challenge links:
One-Layer Simplicity: Road Trip
Fussy 'n' Fancy Friday Challenge: All About travel....card may not be very fancy but fits the theme.



It's raining today ....not a good day for a ride in an open convertible.
