Hi everyone and thanks for stopping by!
Today's card is another collage card (I love collage and putting together old fashioned things). It's a little different because I have used an Accucut die that cuts out a colorblock design that I have used as compartments. (I must say that I love Accucut dies, they have some amazing designs.)
The colorbox diecut was made with plain black cardstock. I outlined it in gold and then sprayed gold over it in droplets. I did this by whacking my pen against my scissors (an oldie but goodie!). I attached it using double thicknesses of mounting tape to give it depth.
The card itself is ivory cardstock. And the front mat is Tim's new kraft glassine which I embossed with the time piece folder and then colored in Pine Needles Distress ink from Ranger.
As you can see, this card is very three-dimensional! I love this kind of card style because I can use all the little "Fiddly-bits" as my older sister would say; and fill each compartment with a memory.
Some close ups for you to enjoy!
I do love the new Typeset alphabet slim die from Sizzix. (I used it for the word below.) The letters are not perfect and I love the rough edges.
I hope that you are inspired to make some collage cards of your own!
Thanks,Lis
