Gold Cogs and Grunge

Welcome
A special welcome to Becca Sadler of  Becca's Heart for Creativity, my newest follower

This card is for the challenge starting today at Word Art Wednesday , which is being sponsored by 
D.R.S Designs, who are providing the winner with a $20 voucher to their store.


I started the card by tearing around the scripture (which is available free on the Word Art Wednesday Blog) and brushing on some Memento Golden Glow ink.
which was layered over some paper from the Dark Inks collection by Recollections. 


 I gold embossed the edges of the paper  The paper itself has some gold on it, which unfortunately shows as black in the photos.


I then embossed the edges of the Cranberry cardstock base with gold and added some gold cogs over the edges of the feature panel at either end.


The inside of the card was finished with a narrow strip of gold Washi tape.

Love the gold and the way that this one is bold and a bit masculine. Hugs, Gerrina
