Bill's 80th Birthday

Hello Friends,
Today I am posting a card I made for a Friend's 80th Birthday.  I stamped the car on Brushed Silver card with Stazon Black ink and used designer paper for the mats with silver accents.  The Smokey Grey piece of card has been dry embossed with the 3D Basics E/Folder.  The White mat was dry embossed with the Diamond Plate from Provo Craft.  I layered the numbers 3 times and used dimensionals to give the card layers more dimension.  I thought I had captured the shiny accents in my photos but not as much as I wanted too.
Thanks for dropping by today.

Dinosaur #2

Hi there,
Showcasing another Dinosaur card today made from a lot of different Punches and a Computer Disc.  It was designed by Pat Carr originally and made at a Stamp Camp in 2013and you can find it here. I did use a Triangle Punch for the spikey bits on top of the card, I think Pat used squares.  I had to make an envelope with Designer Paper and the Envelope Punch as the spikey bits on the top of the head extended past a C6 envelope.
Thanks for visiting today.
