Toni is this week's Ways to Use It Challenge Hostess. Her challenge, We Are "Versa"-tile was the perfect incentive for me to try the Faux Patina technique. The vintage copper tile look reminded me of the pretty tea kettle die and an old favorite sentiment stamp. I brushed ink on the edge of the sentiment panel and over a woodgrain embossed panel. Adhered the panels to a black card base and finished it with a vellum doily and some musical notes. TFL
Hope you'll play along with Toni's challenge!

Love the tiled effect with the embossing folder you used - it makes a great splashback. What a nice positive, uplifting sentiment. The combination of copper and your teakettle brings back memories of the tea shop (much more than a café) in the village where I grew up, which was called The Copper Kettle - and of course it had some copper kettles in the window.
