Dimension

The challenge at Make My Monday this week is to add some dimension to the project.  I've done this in a fairly simple way with multiple layers.  The embossed panel has some red gilding  wax added to highlight the texture; the next layer had texture paste applied through a stencil mask. then coloured with Distress ink; the car was from Creative Expressions stamped and embossed; fancy metal brads rubbed with gilding wax were added to the wheels.   I finally added a couple of tickets and a bow tied with some pieces of red waxed cord left from making a bracelet (knew it was worth saving them!!).

  3. The colours are super & I love the brad wheels - had to smile over your waxed cord. Like how your 'jaunty' ticket echoes the chevrons in patterned paper too.
