Card Idea for Fathers Day

The Geared Up Garage bundle is a perfect set for some of the men in my family. Its especially great for my dad. I made him this Fathers Day card using this set, because he's always been a "car" guy. Plus, he raced cars for 50 + years of his life!

I'm not sure if this is a Chevy or not, but I know that my dad owned a 57 Chevy when he was a teenager. I figured, it was close enough- its an antique "classic" either way, and I'm sure he will love it.

All the cool accesories, like the Classic Garage wrench and key elements, will sure to make my dad smile. I attached them with glue dots and also used the Black/Silver ribbon to play off the shine of the embellishments.

Instead of die cutting with the Garage Gears thinlits, I used them to"emboss" with. I did this by using the Big Shot Emboss Mats. It lets me emboss any die cut image instead of "cutting" it.

Pretty cool, huh?

I'm excited to give this card to my dad for Father's Day... unless I decide I can't wait, and give it to him for his birthday...

Thanks for checking in today.

Until the next time...

Keep on Stampin' and Come back again soon!
