Rusted Enamel Notecards
I snapped together these matching note cards using left over trial pieces from the wooden anniversary box. The patterned paper is from the K & Co. paper pack that I've been working through over the past couple of months. The glassine flowers were left over from my first trials with the glassine paper. The larger shapes were cut from Cricut's Paper Lace cart. The larger "flower" shape and the smaller teal embellishment was distressed using the Rusted Enamel technique. I just love how this technique appropriately ages the embellishment and adds depth to the card. I still have yet to decide what the sentiment should be on these cards, so I may wait until the need arises.
This one last card was also made with some scraps. I used the Wrinkle Free Distress technique to create the background and then stamped with the Fiskars stamp using coffee Archival Ink. The frame is also a leftover from the wooden anniversary box trials and the bronze pearls from Queen and Co. The flower comes from my ancient silk flower stash and seemed to add just the right splash of color for this card.
I've decided to link this card up to the Focal Point Challenge over at the Moxie Fab World. I suggest you join me in the fun!
