Welcome to my entry in the Operation Write Home World Card Making Day Blog Hop. For today's card I used the OWH sketch #81.
My Cards were made to use both parts of two diecuts. The die cuts were a Spellbinders thin heart die in multiple shapes and the Sizzix alternations ornamental mover and shaper.
In Card 1 the key accent is from a Club Scrap Lock and Key Collection free printable. Accents include glossy accents, Flourish dry embossing folder, Prima fluid chalk white, distress stain in antique bronze, metallic pencil in bronze, and distress ink vintage photo.
Card 2 has accents that include glossy accents, distress stain in antique bronze, metallic pencil in blue, and Antique Gold gilders paste.
Both cards use papers from Neenah and Club Scrap mat red paper. The stamps are from Club Scrap. The background technique is detailed in my post from yesterday. I sealed the shimmery background with clear embossing power to enhance the shine.
Thanks,
Debby
