A Vintage Father's Day Card

Father's Day is fast approaching and I know all of you are looking for some great ideas for men's cards.  If you are like me, you find it easier to make cards for woman.  Sherry Hickey from A Bit of Cheer has shared a great masculine card.  I just love all the different buttons and the pieced collage background on this card. The image is one I posted awhile back of a vintage ad.
Thank you for sharing Sherry.  You can see more of Sherry's exciting work at her blog.

Here is the image.

Be sure to check out all the vintage motorcycle and car images I have posted in the past.  They make great Father's Day cards if your father is into vintage transportation.

Spectacular Images from LHJ

Ladies Home Journal May 1900 you are spectacular.  These images cleaned up so nicely.  They are so detailed.  I can't wait to work on my project.  I am thinking another mobile like the one I made a few years ago.

Riding

I can't wait to see what you are all creating with all of these beautiful images from Ladies Home Journal May 1900.

This is a simple card I made using one of the images.  I had a bunch of thank you notes I wanted to send out.   The image was colored with Copics and a Pigma Micron pen.  The background card is embossed with a Anna Griffin embossing folder and gently sanded.  I added some tissue tape by Tim Holtz to the edge and colored it with some paint.
