And this is my interpretation:
I used my new Stripes embossing folder (from the Stripes and Pinwheel set by Sizzix), going around the edge with a Spectrum Noir marker to lift it a little from the background card. I used Washi tape for the banners. Then I cut a rectangle out of patterned wood boards paper and matted it onto silver mirror card, then stamped the sentiment. Using my Garden Tools Sizzlits I cut handles from wood grain patterned paper and cut the heads from silver mirror card.
The mirror card was pressed against the scratched surface of my Big Shot cutting pads so it's been inadvertently embossed with the scratches, but that gives a nice weathered look. I hadn't done it when I took these photos, but I think I'll glaze the handles of the tools. If I had glossy accents that's what I'd use, but as I don't I'll have to make do with Decopatch's glossy glue.
What a fun card! I love the shiny, weathered look you've given the tools. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
