Here is my card for this challenge.
It has a cream hammer base...the next layer has been stamped around the edges with Faux Fun 'lacy bookmark' (as I call it). Stamped the corners with the point of it, masked them and then stamp the straight sides. Then stamped the little leaf from Faux Vintage Circles in the centre and give them a lift with some diamante. The next layer with the aperture is edged with velvet ribbon (drat one side is crooked). The label is from Stampington's 'Paris' embossed in midnight black powder. The sentiment is from Papertrey Scattered Showers - the only one I could find to fit the space...and finally the silver filigree embellishment replaces a button....a black button looked too dull for this.
My thanks to Bernie for sending me a plethora of photos to choose from. This is the first time I've ever used a sketch...it really does make me think....and when you look at all the cards on display isn't it amazing just how many different cards you can get from one sketch.
Beautiful Joyce, I love how you did the corners! Genius!, so going to do that!! Thank you for playing along!
