I will enter it in the CES Challenge Blog - Vintage Darling! and in the Pattie's Creations Design Challenge - Fancy Fold.
Also for Aud Sentiments #45 Challenge - use scraps!
Base card is SU Crumb Cake (or Kraft) and SU Very Vanilla - my fold is a take on the Joy Fold. The brads are lovely vintage brads from SU and SU twine. The background papers are from the scrap stash. I just picked five papers that looked masculine and went together. The stamps are from Darkroom Door's Vintage Automobiles. The ink is Memento Rich Cocoa and Distress Antique Linen.
Unwrap the linen thread and it opens up.......
.....to this! I distressed and inked the edges of the vanilla card but didn't add ink to anything else. Keeps it a bit edgy I thought.
Beautiful day today and I went out with the camera to take the photos of the card and ended up playing with the camera for 30 minutes in the sunshine, learning to take close ups and stuff. They are not that good but better than I have done in the past. I must learn to use my camera better than I do.

Your pictures are so crisp and clean! Love them! In Spring you'll have gorgeous blooms to photograph. Your card totally rocks! I think cards with humor are the hardest to make, and the best to give. You rocked this one! Thanks for the awesome comment on my page. There is no better complement :)
Lovely card, and super vintage feel to it. Thanks for joining us at Patties Creations Challenge #35.
