F4A HYCCT True Heart

Photo Details

Poster: Stamperrobin

Hi all, Here is my card for the F4A challenge-Fall colors. This is also for the Tough as Nails HYCCT challenge. I have hardware cloth and nail heads (in gold, copper and silver). I also added gears. Because the MIX challenge is also fall and I have so many "ingredients" I've added it to that challenge as well.
I used a sheet of copper and used a metal embossing mold with a stint. I burned my copper but you can't see much of it...it's mostly covered. My horse has copper, gold and silver metal works on him (my colored version of). Copper is the main color which is my fall color (along with gold). It may not look like it but this card took quite a bit of time.
Thanks for looking!

You say the funniest things..."It may not look like it but this card took quite a bit of time"....mate it does look like it would take a LOT of time and every single minute was worth it. You really are making it difficult for me to choose my Stamperrobin Fav of the Year card!! I just scrolled back for another look...wow, wow,wow!!!

Wow, Robin I'm stunned by this fantastical artwork. I love how you've accented that marvelous horse with the gears, mesh and tooled copper. It's obvious this took a long time and is a work of love and art! You, Francie and Susie have set the bar extremely high and provided a lot of inspiration.

Robin, this is truly EXTRAORDINARY. I cannot imagine how long it took you to create this...let alone plan it. If you plan on mailing it, the USPS is going to be happy to see you coming. ; ) Gorgeous design...and the details....my head is spinning!
