Hi everyone and Happy Friday. I know that for some of you it's not Friday so Happy day wherever you are!
Today's card is a collage card. I used Graphic 45 papers. I love their old style look.
I started out with ivory card stock for my card base. Then I used patterned paper for the mat. You will notice that I edged the mat in gold. I cut out one of the images from the Graphic 45 paper and colored the edge with walnut stain dye ink.
7 Gypsies makes ATC supplies. One of the ones they did was clear plastic holders to put over the ATCs. They had a set you could buy with designs on them. What you are seeing below (the black flower to the left of the woman's face) is one of those ATC folders. I trimmed off the one end and placed it on top of the picture. It looks really good and is a nice accent.
Then I took a medium tag and stamped and colored the edges with walnut stain dye ink. I took a silver ball chain and colored it red with alcohol ink. I punched out four small tags and embossed the letters M-U-S-E on them and strung them through the chain. I attached the medium tag with mounting tape.
As a final touch I punched out two Fleur De Li's in gold glossy and added them to the card.
I hope you enjoyed today's card.

This card is a feast for the eyes. I really love the woman's face and the way the flower stems curl. I like the little tags and the chain because I like things that swing and move.
I hope you enjoyed today's card.

I just bought the MS scroll heart punch and googled it for ideas. It sent me to your blog and WOW, I am so impressed with your work! I went all the way back to the beginning of your postings in January and have poured over each one and the incredible work and creativity that you display. I can't believe that you haven't had comments on the beautiful work you do! I would love to see a videos of some of your techniques,especially the hot foil one. I have subscribed to your blog and hope others do as well. Keep up the great work!
