OK, so on first glance you might wonder what workplace item appears 9 times on this card. Remember I work as a beer taster, and crackers are very important for cleansing the palate in between samples. Occasionally the supply chain breaks down, and then some have to be scrounged from other parts of the building to keep us going - on occasion some of us have even had to go out and buy them. I only counted eight on the stamped image, so I stamped them again on a scrap of paper and coloured and cut out an extra cracker to make 9 in total.
The base was from my old background box - modelling paste stencilled and rubbed with various rub-ons and possibly something else. There were a few white patches, so I sprayed it a little with some Brusho Acrylic Mist in Sea Green and Shimmering Turquoise, and used the colours from my background panel to colour the image.
Base layer also has one edged embossed and rubbed with some more Luster Rub-ons, and the right edge is die-cut to match the edge of the image.
Lace border was also cut from a scrap from my box.

NICE card, great use of techniques! Like the paste borders and the colors are terrific. Great looking criss-cross staples, too. How clever of you to think of the crackers, Sabrina! Now I wish I had some of G'ma's homemade chicken and spaetzle soup. Mmmm. xx
