A Camaro for Joe

I made this card for my best friend's DH who fully restored their 68 Camaro last year. The color of the car is actually gold, but since I couldn't alter the solid color of this digi stamp, I added gold accents to the card. The image was printed and then heat embossed with clear ep. The polka dot DP qualifies this for today's WT312 challenge....which is to use polka dots. I hope Joe likes this one :)
Have a great Thursday and thanks for stopping by!

Carol, I love this card. So many of my friends had this very same car way back when. The papers you chose really bring out the image and there is just the perfect amount of gold. I'm sure your friend's husband will be very happy to receive this cards.

He will love this, Carol! The gold accents are just perfect! My DH is looking for a Chevy playtoy, but a Vet. Ugh! Told him I don't think my bad knees would let me get in and out of a Vet.

Your friend's hubby is going to FLIP his buffing cloth when he sees this! SERIOUSLY! I would have your pal just get this framed, as well, because he's gonna want this to be showcased RIGHT near his baby!

You're AMAZING!
