WOW, Jean, I love your gallery! Your artsy cards are so cool. I totally fell in love with and CASED this one: SC404 creative journey by jkanack at Splitcoaststampers. I was impressed by the visual, but when I read what you used to make it, I was amazed. I kept the same general layout and color combo, but of course, had to substitute for ALL the design elements. Water colored two pieces with shades of brown and embossed (Sissix/Bark & Cuttlebug/ distressed stripes) while still damp. Embossed (Darice/ Crackle) a piece of brown suede paper and ran Stazon brown over it lightly. Die cut IO/Pine Branch from gold foil paper and ran SN alcohol pen over it to tone it down. Used SB/Rose die for flower (embossed with crackle and distress ink) - SN pen around edges of petals. Fiskars sm. flower punch for center and 2nd flower. Blue CS embossed with Sizzix Sq. Lattice. SS/love you die for sentiment. Enjoy your special week, Jean!

Wow! What a great case of Jeans's card - but you made this gem your very own. Both are very impressive cards! Love the gold striking through the centre of this one.
Wonderfully done. Love all the textures in both cards.
