Good afternoon! Today I would like to share with you the Father's Day card I have made for my dad featuring Fixer Upper Edwin from the Fixer Upper Collection and Edwin's Oldsmobile car from the Summer Memories Collection.
I have painted Edwin with Distress Inks using the no lines techique and added dots to his cheeks and eyes with a white gel pen before cuttin him out. He is placed on 3D pads. All of the papers on this card are by Maja Design with the exception of the paper I have used for the floor and the scene outside the window.
Edwin's Oldsmobile was also painted with Distress Inks. I created a DAD numberplate to replace the CUBA one that is on the stamp. I have covered the paintwork and windows of the car with Glossy Accents and the headlights with Stardust Stickles.
The window was cut with a Doohickey die from Volume 9 and I placed a section of paper from Pion Design for the scene outside the window. I've added Glossy Accents to the window panes too.
The metal store ornament from my stash is a great way of adding some interest to cards for males.
The cute hammer and brush are charms from Craft Heaven.
I love using dies in different ways. The ramp is made from the bottom of the Eiffel Tower Doohickey from Volume 3! The oil patches are part of a stamp from the Magnolia Day Art stamp kit. I just inked the larger splatters.
Watch my video to see how this card moves! It took a while to figure out how to make the car move up when I wanted the pull tab to be on the side rather than on top but I love how it turned out!
I hope you like it and thanks for looking!
