I have two sets of "Lexicon of Love" and trimmed one set to compliment the other. I was surprised how well the definition fits together when you take the two lines out with "friend" in it. [same for others in set] My demo suggested mounting the word on the flat side of the stamp for a more accurate aim. The punch is the SU folk art punch with metallic paper.

The friend in bronze - just smear versamark on the paper and then coat with Embossing Powder and stamp when still warm. I used extra thick embossing powder to make it look more like a seal. Golly, my brads are crooked as a dog's hind leg! Oh, brother.

Do you have Simple Shapes? I was wondering if a person stamped the 3 dot or the 3 square stamp in Versamark, they could be brad markings. Of course I guess you have to make sure that's lined up straight, too! Your card is beautiful...it is eclectic/collagey and I didn't even think about the brads being dog-like...lol!!!
