For TLC81, I did Colored Soot Stamping. See the Resources forum for great instructions. Thanks, Beate!
This is a tall card and measures 8.5 x 3.5.
Details: Aida is stamped in sahara sand on the VV. The old olive above the ribbon is stamped with the leaves and acorn from Touch of Nature and Weathered BG.
I cut the prongs off the bottom three brads and attached them with glue dots so the hardware doesn't show inside. All of the brads are hammered.
This was fun. Thanks for the challenge.

The word that comes to mind when I saw this card (which really grabbed my attention by the way) is HANDSOME. Very handsome card. I love all the elements. It is hard to pick a favorite feature. From the scalloped Edges of the main image to the mix of BG images to the brads to the Soot Stamping. It is great.
