Birthday Card for My Brother

Still a classic....................

............ after all these years!

My brother loves motorcycles.  He rides a Harley, thus the orange and silver/black color theme of this card.  But I think he will appreciate this handsome digi of a vintage Norton that I found at Delicious Doodles.

No coloring here, but I did darken the image just a bit before printing because I wanted it to stand out against the silver and black.  I used the Cuttlebug Diamond Plate embossing folder on the metallic silver card stock.  The film strip is Spellbinders die. Odds and ends of brads and papers finish it off.

I think he will like this.  He is three years younger than I so I can get by with this sentiment.  But it is true of him anyway.  He is a classic and a great guy.  I love him a lot!  Happy birthday, little brother!

Thanks for stopping by today.  I will be hopping on when I can this weekend.  I have company and five weddings to photograph!  It's a miracle I got this card in today!
