Can you sing the title of my card to 'My Favorite Things'? That was my intention, anyway.
Recycling, Audrey Hepburn, embossing folders, heat embossing, my grandparent's old dictionary, water soluble mediums, stash stuff, using beads...these are a few of my favorite things.
Not sure about the debossed die resist (I used an embossing folder). I did use an oil pastel but I didn't see much 'resisting.' I also dabbed some Versamark into the lower areas and heat embossed with two metallic powders. I did use the embossed side, got better results, I thought. My bottom layer is a paper towel from my spray box, there is an embossed pattern on that and the inks went into the 'grooves.'
I could do more...I have many more favorites!
Dawn, I'm sad you're taking a break; I enjoy your whimsy, especially your brads. Don't stay away forever. Thanks, Janelle, for the MIX challenge.

YOur cards are always full of "you", and your favorite things, Jean. This one is a beauty.

I like all the metallics, but I think my favourite is the spray box piece. I usually use mine for too long till they are not worth upcycling. I should stop sooner. What a beautiful bead.

Love that quote! Never thought about how impossible is spelled like I'm possible. I like how you positioned the dictionary piece with the word antique at the top. Fabulous colors and techniques!
