I can't tell you how long it's been since I made my dad a handmade personalized birthday card. Last year I was preparing for surgery on his birthday after not being in a good place since December (everything is GREAT, now). Before that I worked at a major card company and hadn't made my own cards for years!!!
I recently created a 50's layout inspired by a Club CK One Hour Challenge. The challenge was to create a layout inspired by a TV show or movie. You can see the layout here. While I was working with the classic car, I thought that it would be perfect for a birthday card for my step-dad, Dewey! I'm so excited that I get to see him in a few weeks!
Foam tape was used on the "Route 66" sign and the car to add dimension.

I love the silver metallic Recollections cardstock for the accents.
I buy several sheets each time it is on sale.
I hope there is another sale soon, I only have a partial sheet left!
