The diner was silver embossed and then colored with Copic markers to resemble the colors of the 1950s. Those are platinum records at the top of the design which were also embossed in silver. My SIL was born in 1950, and I think she'll like the theme of this card.
TFL!

Wow, what an outstanding card for this week's sketch. You chose such an original theme and carried it out so well. I love your silver and turquoise colors with all the cool embossing. The platinum records take it over the top!
