The theme is Metal
The embossed background was black card stock which I rubbed over with antique silver after passing it through the Big Shot , it has quite an amazing metal-like appearance. I stamped the silver car, masked it and stamped the black cars and I made the sentiment using my computer- shame is we'd run out of black ink, so the monochrome effect was not as I had hoped, but I still think it works. I am entering the challenge at Cards4Guyz with this one. It's my first time over there and the challenge is 'No patterned Paper'
Note to DT team mates-I will try to do better this week and post my cards on time! Thanks for looking!
It might be a wee bit late but its a great card!
