Good morning and happy Monday to you! Today is the day for the Crafty Secret's Design Team Challenge and Linky Party! This month's challenge is to create a patriotic or masculine project. I decided with Father's Day right around the corner that I would make a masculine card. I have a complete tutorial below on how this card was made. My projects always seem to take on a life of their own! ;)
I started with a digital copy of the Car Classics set by Crafty Secrets. I sponged the Route 66 image and cut out the little sign. I colored the car with my Spectrum Noir markers and punched it out with a circle punch. The edges were inked. I gave it a generous coating of glossy accents. I printed the polka dot paper from the Digital Retro Christmas papers pack. I cut various sized circles using my Spellbinder's dies.
I wanted the circles to have a black matte, so I cut out black pinking shear circles. I adhered the patterned paper to it. I added the map/Route 66 image to the center. I decided to hand sew a black border and the tied twine around the center.
I added the car, the sentiment, and a few sequins to finish the card off!
Be sure to visit the other talented ladies!
Have a great day!

Sorry, for my english ;-)
Gorgeous!!!
I love those great repeated circles, the fun texture you added with Glossy Accents and your fabulous tutorial, Michele. What a great card!
WOW! What a FABULOUS design Michele! So much texture, dimension and 'manliness' (lol is that a word?) LOVE it! Thanks for awesome inspiration ... I don't know how you do it! You truly are WONDER WOMAN! Give Courtney a hug from me! I'm so happy for all the wonderfully exciting adventures that have come her way lately! Have a fabulous week!
This is fabulous, Michele! Love the distressing and glossy accents with this fun masculine set.
Love this Michele. At first glance I thought you had used bottle caps to frame the red dot circles and I was wondering where you managed to find them. They really appear to have dimension. You made a fabulous card and this is a great tutorial.
This is totally a Classy Card you created with our Car Classics set Michele. Love all the detail you added!
Thanks for sharing
