Romance Collage

This is for today's Sketch Challenge on Splitcoast and also Rubbernecker's Blogger Challenge #1, to use die cuts. 

SC194RomanceCollage_SaK

My card uses Kraft, Basic Gray and black Cardstocks.  The Romance Collage (Stamp Oasis) was stamped on Kraft using Versafine smokey Gray and sponged with Versafine Black. The DP's are The Paper Studio and were swiped with Distress Old Paper ink and the edges scraped with an old toothbrush inked with Versafine Onyx Black.  Spellbinders were used to cut and emboss the main image panel, the scalloped panel and also the Rod & Decorative Corner.  The rod and corner were sponged with Encore Gold before removing them from the dies.  Sakura Gel Pen highlights were added to the scalloped layer and umbrella, the ribbon is May Arts.  Have a great Wednesday, Make it work Wednesday will return next week.
