Card for a gentleman

This is a card i made ages ago, I  used Kanban paper for the background, Stamped & coloured the waistcoat with Promarkers Then decoupaged it, I stamped the watch & mounted it on a round wooden disk & glued some chain behind it, The Christian Dior buttons are from an old jacket & I stuck a piece of a fabric sample on the base..... PS... the buttons belonged to my late Dad.... I'll never part with this card x
