Congratulations card

This card is for Color Combo’s Galore #198 (theme Vintage Design). The inspiration photo had both a red car and a vintage sign. I found a picture of a Route 66 sign and used that as a template for the card background. It was embossed with a gear embossing folder. The car was coloured with Distress ink, Perfect Pearls and water. The blue paper was embossed with a bingo embossing folder and sanded to reveal the white core, and the gears were stamped with a happy definition stamp. ‘Grattis’ means ‘congratulations’ in Swedish.

 

Supplies: Hero Arts stamps: Going (CL478), Happy Definition (CG269); Distress Ink Fired Brick; Perfect Pearls; Tim Holtz Sizzix Bingo embossing folder and gears die; Cuttlebug gears and swiss dots embossing folders; My Favorite Things flat bottom clouds die; twine; BasicGrey patterned paper; mini stapler.
