This card is for last Friday's Mix challenge - masculine birthday - and today's TLC challenge.
First I made my tarnished foil panel by die cutting the hexagon from the corner, embossing the panel, and then heat embossing silver, copper, gold, and silver powders over the panel randomly. I also dragged Stazon ink over the top.
Next I stamped my car and sentiment on the card front and heat embossed those with clear embossing powder. Inside it says, "To a classic."
The tarnished foil panel is popped up on using foam tape.
Thanks for the fun challenges and thanks for looking.

Outstanding! Excellent ideas for both challenges. The tarnished foil panel is fabulous. Looks great with a hexagon cut-away. Love that old-fashion car. Into my favs. Fantastic masculine birthday card!

Great faux metal BG! I love that you used several colors of EP on it. The classic car fits it perfectly. The hex cut out is a great shape for cars and metal things, too.

Love that you chose a geometric cut out for your corner -- perfect for the image and theme of the card. Great car image too. But that faux metal panel-- phenomenal! I definitely have to give that one a try--thanks for the details on how you did this. Awesome card. Fav'd.
