I was so glad that Charlene's challenge today gave me the opportunity to make a card DH wanted to thank a friend who spent almost all day Saturday helping him fix one of his motorbikes. He even picked the stamp out. Me, I'm not happy that I've got the car grounded properly but it's a stamp I always have trouble with!
A2 black base. Paper is K & Co Geo Floral.
I embossed the car image with clear EP and coloured it with H2Os and a silver gel pen. Then I embossed it with Traffic Jam and sponged with green and brown. Sentiment punched with the round tab punch and added after I matted the image layer on black.

How fun, cool, and masculine! I love your choice of embossing folders to go with your car image and the background designer paper. Thanks for playing in my challenge, Sabrina!

I adore old vintage cars ... especially when someone has brought them back to new life with hours & hours of love & likely even more $$. lol This one would be such a fine, fine ride wouldn't it? Such a fun card!

Very awesome and cool masculine card, Sabrina. It reminds me of how they shoot pictures of show cars in magazines - with these awesome BGs - very pretty!

Great card. I've been looking for a sample to case for "motorcycle" that is sort-of a scene. I came to your gallery for sure! Tis might be the one that serves as inspiration - I am still looking, as is my method. Anyway, I love love love how you handled the treatment of this image. Great card!
