Curtains and Car Card with White Highlight - the finished project
The finished project

Create an elegant vintage-inspired card featuring a classic car image framed by embossed curtains. Using the Curtains embossing folder on pink patterned paper and a black-and-white car motif, you'll build a sophisticated layered scene. White ink highlighting adds dimension and brings the curtain design to life, creating the illusion of drapes framing your focal image.
