Father's day card

-
Yay I now have a card done for Father's day!  This is great I'm getting to do the cards way in advance now and not last minute as previously!!!  This is a great advantage of this blog.
I wanted to make a vintage masculine card for a challenge.  And I discovered that I didn't have any images that would fit.  I have some that are perfect for women... but not so much for men!  Thank god for this fantastic website :Free vintage digistamps I found the great car image and the man with the hat.  I distressed it with vintage photo ranger distress ink and a distress tool for the edge.  I completed the card with some old buttons and a cute ribbon from the dollar store (such great finds there!)

I'm entering this one in the following challenges:
  1. mim challenge blog - Vintage men card
  2. Reasonable ribbon - Buttons & Bows
Hope I have time tonight to make at least one more!
