My card tonight is a collage using many different techniques to give an old world feel. The photo was taken in the Louvre in Paris on holidays. I coated it with a gel medium and placed it face down on my card stock. After about 24 hours I peeled off the back of the photo to reveal the painting. I like the antique effect it gives the image where parts of the photo were missing. The other elements I used in the collage are:
• butterfly napkin
• Hero Arts stamp “Italian Poem”
• sewing pattern
• grunge board flourish rubbed with copper metallic paint
To further age the card I used sandpaper on parts and added a sepia colour wash.
Very artsy Judy! This one deserves a frame of its own!

That is so beautiful!! What a neat idea. Do you have to use a special card stock?
