Boys 2 Men Card

Remember this ATC I made? Well it's turned into a birthday card for a dear friend. It also fits the Double Dutch challenge this time so I can enter it there now....only just in time but could not blog about this till said friend had got the card could I?

I added some more stamped images and collaged them......stamped an image in Staz on onto a large brad in the lower corner....the base card I've had for ages...a QVC TSV from way back........dragged some gold paint dabber over the embossed bits and around the edges too.

.......I think the size of ATC's make great accents for a card don't you?

Thanks for looking.

  1. Lovin this card! Its very vintagefunk. I love using an atc as a central point for a card and then building outwards from it ... I think what you've done here is really creative and effective! x

  4. This has worked so well. Yes I agree the ATc's do make a great accent on the card and I like the way you have added elements so it doesn't just look stuck on.
