Industrial Layers

Simon Says Stamp and Show MORE THAN ONE LAYER, I love this challenge as I always add lots of layers to my creations so this was an easy one for me!

Lots of layers from me this week in the form of Metal Foil Tape, fabulous dimensional flower created from the Tattered Florals die, rusty wire, corrugated card and embellishments galore to create my industrial floral card. I added Metal Foil Tape to card and then embossed the background using the Regal Flourishes Texture Fade, coloured with pitch black Alcohol Ink and then sanded to give an Industrial feel. I then added touches of ginger Alcohol Ink to the crevices and then added to a 5" x 7" card blank.

From any left over foil I cut 6 layers using the Tattered Florals die colouring each layer with sail boat blue Alcohol Ink with touches of ginger here and there, attaching together with a  Curio Knob adding further interest and dimension. Before attaching the floral I added three coils of rusty wire, adding the floral to the top.

A further layer in the form of corrugated card which I machine stitched into place along with some string tied to the centre adding yet another layer of interest. I added a Hinge Clip to the edge of the corrugated card attaching a floral and leaves from the Idea-Ology Foliage. I also added "grow" cut from more metal using the Word Play die again colouring with pitch black Alcohol Ink but sanding only a little this time around.

This close up picture shows you the fabulous detail the metal foil gives embossed with the Texture Fade and the contrast between the background and my letters.
