TLC370 Courage with Faux Patina

Photo Details

Poster: artystamper

Oh my goodness - I am so happy with how my card came out today! I've never tried this Faux Patina Technique before and my panel came out so pretty - I didn't want to cover it with anything!!!

I finally settled on using this wonderful courage sentiment from Rubbernecker , some wrinkled seam tape and a gold crown!

I will certainly be trying this technique again Judy! thanks for the fun challenge today!!

Julia, your faux patina panel did turn out gorgeously! Really, one of the prettiest in the gallery. Love your choice of colors and EF. I really like how you kept rest of the card simple to let this bg shine.
