This card is for two challenges this week though if they kick me out of the CAS258 challenge I can understand. CAS this week was to make a card with a tag or tab on it and I think I ended up with more of a panel. The TLC467 challenge was to make a one layer card that looks like more than one layer.
I embossed my background old school with a Dreamweaver metal stencil, a light box, and a stylus. The stamp was coloured with markers and huffed on to remoisten before stamping. I drew the 'hanger' and attached a brad.

WOW, your card is awesome, I like how you created the one layer challenge. Old school embossing, good for you, nice to use the tools that seem to be left sitting.

I'm sitting here staring at your amazing card - I know the technique but have never seen it in action... this card is fabulous and of course it fits the challenge - big time!

I love this and someday I hope to figure out how to do leave some blank space in an embossing folder! This looks fabulous in black and white with just the hint of red in the birds!

So very clever of you to go back to the light box and stylus to emboss. Your tag (with the appearance of being separate)ROCKS and your birds giving the pop of red is brilliant on this very creative artistic card.
