For Dad (aka "Pops")

Today, we're taking my dad out to lunch for father's day. I know, it's early...but Dad is going racing on Sunday (see a pic of Dad in his car below) and we're going camping.

I JUST made this card this a.m.....nothing like last minute, huh? LOL! I went with today's Limited Supplies Challenge, which was to use knots on a card...awesome challenge for us peeps (me!) who aren't SUPER talented with making bows.

I got this great classic car image through the wish-RAK forum. I colored two images with Prisma Pencils, cut the one out, and popped it up on dimensionals over the first colored image. The black mat panel behind the car is also up on a layer of dimensionals.

Recipe ~
Stamps: misc car image (from wish-RAK), Gina K Kindred Sentiments for Her
Paper: Papertrey White, Ballet Blue, Basic Black, Shiny Silver from LSS
Ink: Versafine Black Onyx
Accessories: Silver Brads, Black Grosgrain Ribbon, Dimensionals
Technique: Gamsol Magic

Wanna see that photo of my dad in action?...here he is racing at Maple Grove Raceway. That's him on the line getting ready to run. The slicks look all warped because he's starting to do his burnout to warm the tires.

We call this photo "Eye of the Tiger" because when we zoom in to his face inside the car, he's soooooo focused....very intense! I love my "Pops" and I'm so proud of him. He built this car all on his own....pulled it out of a junkyard and made it the beauty that it is today.

Good luck this Sunday, Pops! Hugs from all of us!

Thanks for stopping by my blog, and have an awesome Friday!
