My husband is the owner of an old British sports car, a Sunbeam Tiger. We belong to several national and international clubs of the marque. I like making b'day cards for club members who have become friends....and featuring a facsimile of their car and in its color. This owner has a white one. The car has a deep throaty roar from its V-8 engine....why it was named "Tiger". : )
For extra texture I stenciled a bamboo pattern on part of the card with embossing paste and then toned it with TH inks.

WOW! how cool to superimpose the digi tiger image on to the tiger DP - the added bamboo just "FITS" (I can practically see the tiger prowling through the bamboo in the forest!) Your friends in the car club must love getting such personalized cards! Awesome!

What fun to belong to a car club!! Your tiger and sentiment will thrill the enthusiast who owns the white Tiger!! The image with those eyes is fabulous!!

That tiger background is GORGEOUS! We have a couple Corvettes and I often make Vette cards for the people we go to shows with. Especially great for the guys - they can be so difficult.

Sallie....this is fabulous. We had a Jensen Interceptor for years. Finally sold it, because we got tired of the stress of owning it.....lol. We sold it and took European cruise!!!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
