mixed media card - black & gold

 
Hello! It's been a while since my last post... my head is just not in crafting... I mean I am crafting, but it's more personal... I am doing a gratitude/thanks giving prayer and Bible verse mini album... so, yeah... I am still crafting. :) Anyhow... I have all these posts that haven't been up-loaded so it's time to share what I have already made... back like a year ago...

Here are some close-up pictures where you can see the awesome texture:

 
 
I am not even sure what stamps I used... something old, no doubt... I've been doing just that, using up whatever I have and digging out ancient sets... it's been fun not trying to chase down the newest and best! I have an overwhelming amount of craft supplies and I have to use it... I've been thinking about moving my craft room, but first I have to empty another room... so it will be very, very, very slow...

I am linking this up at Simon Says Stamps Wednesday Challenge: Thank You/Thanksgiving.

Thank you for stopping by,

Monika

Hi Monika! I'm not sure how I missed this, but WOW! What a beauty! Sorry I've been MIA - seems like Nov. and Dec. have just flown by, and I can't seem to keep up these days! Hugs to you, dear friend!!!

Hi Monika,

Your card is so beautiful! Your work is always so creative. I hope you will continue to post more often when you have the time. :) I started posting on my blog after 4 years of not doing much to post. :) I hope you are doing well .

That is Gorgeous, love all the dimension and layering, love the butterflies all around. I too try to go back and use my old stuff right along with all the new, we can't let them be forgotten :) Good luck with the moving of your room, I can't imagine doing that with mine.
