Brads and MFP sneak peek week

It's another month and what a month ..... it's June! .... this is my month .... yes, it's my birthday this week.  You will probably get tired of hearing about it but hey, our birthdays only come around once a year so I think we should celebrate!  To start off this month I will be joining in a challenge or two and showing off Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps! a Heinrich Company June new releases so let's get started.
Two for the price of one here on my blog .... I'm repeating myself .... my husband always says I ramble ..... now what was I saying ... oh yeah, two for the price of one.... first MFP sneak peek Classic Dad stamp set which I really like it is full of classic cars and some good sayings so without further ado here is my card.  I'm following the trend of paper sunbursts.  It's a technique going around the net lately of cutting strips of pattern papers and positioning them into a sunburst aka the name paper sunbursts.  I don't have original instructions so I just did it my way which is basically cutting rectangle strips of pattern paper, cutting in half diagonally then taping to card.  easy peasy and each one is a little different plus you can use up all those scraps of pattern papers that I know you have. lol!  and mix and match.  Got out my Brilliance lightning black ink pad to stamp the images and added brads for wheels for fun.  Oh yeah, there is also some gold ribbon wrapped around the layer for added texture.  Hope you like my card.
