I flipped the sketch so I could use this image. I needed to make a card for my uncle who is turning 60. I used my computer to genterate the sentiment...
At 60 you're not OLD... and on the inside it says
You're just Antique!
I used the wrinkle free distress technique behind the old car and on the long panel. I added some distressing with my itty bitty backgrounds. I distressed the edges of the car and long panels with the edges of my scissors. I matted each panel with blakc to make them pop.
What do you think?

Great masculine card, bet your uncle will love it. I was guessing *vintage* for the inside sentiment, but I suppose I wasn't far off.
Hope the audit went smoothly for you...

Might just have to get this stamp after seeing your card! My DH has a 1930 Model A that he bought when he was 18! Just finished having it completely restored. This would be SO perfect for him. Love the colors you used!

Oh Marilynn!! This is soooo cooool just beautiful love all the distressing and love the colors. I'm sure he'll treasure this card. I know a guy that has an old classic car and puts it in our shows we have every year and I know he would love this card. Beautifuly done.
