My card for Melody's VSN/Staycation challenge, Reading Books, to include an image of a book or a book page on our card. I used an old encyclopedia page on this card; it has that cool drawing of arches on an old castle in Spain!
I embossed the lighter brown CS with the Brick Wall EF, & then did direct-to-paper with the tea dye ink to give it some depth. Then spritzed it with the Glimmer Mist (hard to see in the photo). Tore or distressed the edges of all the pieces, & sponged vintage photo ink on all the edges.

WONDERFUL masculine card...love the vintage feel and the torn distressed edges! Your brick EF panel, encyclopedia aged page and keyhole embellishment are such great additions to the look of the entire card! Love it!
