I've gone all vintage today wanting to play with my distress inks and moonshadows :) Made some backgrounds yesterday so I chose a nice area of one I'd used greens, red and brown distress inks on and stamped the keys from Tracey Coates' new "Artistic Elements" sheet and embossed with Moonglow Midnight emerald. I've painted inside the two outer keys with a yellow H2O paint to make them stand out and stamped some swirls in the corner which are actually part of the flying heart off the same sheet.
I've attached a chain to the sentiment at the bottom which are two stamps from the sheet, mos of the sentiments can be used inside this frame. I've mounted the top panel on 3d foam so that the sentiment moves and I've also added a little key charm painted with alcohol inks to blend in more.
The bottom pic shows the card tilted and the moonglow effect, midnight embossing powders are black but change colour when tilted so this one is midnight emerald. The stamps in this set can be seen further down the post.
