Rather than using buttons on the side, I used screw brads on the top, otherwise I pretty much kept her same layout.
My bg is tin foil glued on top of cardstock, run through a tire track ef, painted with brown acryllic paint. After it dried, I used a sanding block to bring out some of the sheen from the tin foil out. This is the first time I have ever tried this technique and love it. Great for masculine cards
On the image, I used the Rock 'n Roll technique.
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a closer look. Hope you like it

Terrific masculine card, Barb. Your tire tread EF is FABULOUS with your vintage car image. Love the effect of the acrylic paint on the foil. Wonderful card for all 3 challenges.

Oh wow, Barb! This is an amazing 'guy' card! I LOVE the metallic embossed tire tracks and the image and the checkerboard hidden behind the die cut. The vintage car is the perfect image for this and I love the screw brads too!
