My Dad's turning 90

My Dad will be 90 in September, I have designed a top for his cake, it features a baby photo (probably about 7 months old) , I sent it off to a local cake decorating place to be printed in some sort of icing, now it off to the Cake making lady, can't wait to see the finished cake.  When I design the toppers, I am always amazed when I pick them up to see the beautiful coloured result.

My Dads Birthday Cake Topper
Eclectic Ellapu's current them is Birthday Card for an oldie, I thought Dad qualified.  The image is a 1923 Ford, which I have coloured in Copic and Touch Pens,  the design is from the sketch at Digi Sketch this fortnight.  Have a close look at the closeup and you will see windows on the car, I bought these little clear square 3d stickers years ago and they have sat in my stash never to be used,  thought they would bring the car to life.  What do you think?
