Since I was so late last week I've made sure to fly in early this time round for the TPT challenge. And duh, I've just realised I TOTALLY forgot about Flying Ace Snoopy, and thought this stamp image was the only plane I had. Oh well - it's a good masculine card for Trent, more than Snoopy would have been. How could I forget him, though...addled with the heat, I am.
I used all the stuff on my desk from last week's TLC again .
A2 base. Memory Box letters, punched circles and drywall mesh added to a base that I'd scored round the edges and botched slightly, which mattered when it was the card base, but not much at all when it's covered up with everything. I picked up some great gilding wax which sets without needing a fixative, too.
World Traveler image stamped on white card, masked, centre sponged, didn't have the energy to trim all round the notched edge, so it's just cut and sponged.

How funny that you mention forgetting to use your Snoopy stamp, I was sure you would use it for this challenge. That said, this card is Super Fantastic, Sabrina!! Very cool with all the wonderful textures and foil tape! I love the airplane stamp too! A great masculine card!

Oh WOW I love this! Haven't tried the technique yet but this looks fabulous! Not sure what gilding wax is but I certainly will check it out since I love the look you achieved!

Wow Sabrina, this is amazing. I love the layout and the metal technique, how perfect for a man. Trent is sure to love this and I think Snoopy will forgive you. perfect and straight into My Favs.
