CHEVRONS OR STRIPES
I made this for a very special friend's birthday, he'll be 92 in September, although you would never believe it if you saw him, he really does wear his years very well.
He is a hero, one of the last surviving veterans of the Korean War, his regiment was the Royal Engineers, my card design is a nod to his passions- his patriotism and regimental colours...and motorcycles! The panel with the chevrons was created with a stencil, the motorcycle is stamped and embossed with white EP (sorry have misplaced the stamp, will add the make when it surfaces!) and the sentiment stamped and embossed in gold.
There's more inspiration from my lovely teamies over at Sweet Stampin' so do pop over for a visit!
Thanks for looking, have a good weekend
