Cog Birthday Boy Card 01/04/2012

This card was actually made on the 31/03/2012 as my entry to Shendy's daily challenge over on 'Ditzycraftymess' on Facebook. I am VERY happy to say that it came joint first!

I used an 8x8 Anita's white card base and stamped black kanban cogs all over and used various Tim Holtz distress inks around the edge.
The middle layer was a cog mask done with the same Tim Holtz inks as on the base card. After inking I then used versamark and sprinkled with Rangers extra thick clear embossing powder and heated.
Once dry I then distressed the areas left white to have an all over colour. This was then mounted on black mirri board.
The top layer was distressed around the outside with Tim Holtz ink again and then I used black glittery cog peeloffs. The corners then had eyelets used to decorate them. This was then also mounted on black mirri board. All layered on the card blank and several coloured card candi used down the side of the sentiment.

Hope you like it! Xxx
