This card was made last year for my cousin's son's 21st birthday. It's taken me ages to put it up here, but I guess today's the day that I'm putting up a huge swag of photo's from the last 10 months.
This wasn't too difficult a one to do. I did the Ink, Spray and Smash technique from the resources section here at SCS. Using Real Red, Bordering Blue and So Saffron reinkers. Then I stamped the Male guitarist from the In the Groove set in Onyx Black ink onto it. When it was dry, I trimmed it and distressed the edges with an opened pair of scissors (you run the edge of the card through the open scissors right at the 'V'). Next, I stuck the numbers 2 and 1 in the top left hand corner.
I ran a piece of Sliver Shimmer paper through the Cuttlebug in the Diamond Plate folder. I then trimmed it to be 1/2" smaller than the base card and put the screw type brads in the corners.
To make up the card I stuck the embossed piece to the base card and then using foam tape I stuck the Guitarist on an angle to the embossed piece in the middle.

Very, very cool card...but again, your background is the best! Your forte! I love the little touches that make this card striking....the silver paper, the EF, the screws....all of it. Great!
