Father's Day


                                                           
I have always found it a challenge to make cards for a man, especially my father.  This year I started making a card and changed midstream, as it just did not look right to me.  Without really deciding it, I started putting bits and pieces together, forming a collage, and it all fell into place.  I used Tim Holtz' distressed ink technique for the railroad ad and the car, adding a gold mist. Sunday drives are one of the memories I have while growing up, so I was pleased with the vintage flavor of the card and how it turned out!  This car reminds me very much of my father.
