I hope you are having a glorious week. I’m sharing a card that I created to have a touch of an old world feel. Both stamps I’ve had for years and I was tickled to be able to use them together. I distressed all my panels with Brushed Corduory Distress Ink and colored the world image with Tombow Markers. The hardware on the left hand side of the card are bracelet toggles from the jewelry department at Michaels and the gold dots in the center are gold colored post earrings – also purchased at Michaels. I peruse the jewelry section quite often and there are tons of finds there if you are patient enough to look for them.

Hi Becca,
I love all your cards – they are all exquisite, but this is my overall favorite. This one is uniquely creative! I love to browse your blog. I see intricate designs and will sit here in awe wondering how can you repeatedly create such beauty. Is there a handmade card museum?
All your cards would qualify for a showing!
