The Keys...

As promised, here are two more cards made with the Lock & Key set. On the top one, I stamped the keys onto the black cardstock using Brilliance ink, free cut the heart out of the funky patterned paper, embossed the keyhole then cut out the center. Nothing too crazy, but kind of a fun vibe to it.

The second card is made from acetate, which is always difficult to photograph. I stamped the keys across the front using Stazon ink, then attached the main key tag and sentiment panel with double stick tape, then sewed the beige panel onto the inside of the front cover (which hides the ugly backside of the adhered pieces, but still allows the keys to be seen on the front. Very cool!

Hope to be back with another post tomorrow if time allows :)

Clearly, this is a cool card :)

I love the look of clear elements on cards, but honestly haven't played around with them much. Well, yesterday's challenge on SCS was to use rub-ons. I had picked up these colorful rub-ons (American Crafts) somewhere last year, but had yet to use them. Part of the reason I'm drawn to rub-ons is that they can be used on so many surfaces - plastic, glass, etc. So howzabout I dip into my pile of saved packaging (I know I'm not the only one that does that, right?) and cut a piece of plastic to do this window card. I cut the front panel out of the DCWV card base (I liked that the inside was white) and then used the super strong tape to adhere the panel to the inside. Add a couple rub-ons, some tiny gems, and it's all done!
