Tuesday Trigger - Take 2/ Muse Card Challenge -

I had a sudden urge to make another card for the Moxie Fab World TT - A Fine -Toothed Comb!
This card also fits the criteria for 2 other MFW challenges - All that Glitters is Gold and the Metal, Wood and Cork challenge.




The background image is from Kaisercraft and is stamped with metallic gold.
The pink/gold embellishments that look like buttons are made from paper clay, using cake decoration moulds and then coloured with versamark and perfect pearls. The leaves are die-cuts from Memory Box and Impression Obsession. The flowers are made with Memory Box shabby rolled rose die and the metal flower and pearls are from my stash. Whenever I can't decide what colour card to use for the base card, I find that kraft comes to the rescue - gotta love that!!! This is only the second time I've used staples, but it was an epiphany and I hope it works!

My 2nd card is for the latest Muse Card challenge #37 based on a card by Cindy Brumbaugh...


I was quite pleased to use some pieces from my 'unused stash' for this card - the Hero Arts dogwood image  and the embossed card. I got quite a lot of stamped bits and pieces I really must turn it to completed cards!
I hope you like my take - with any luck I might have another go, but we're going to our neglected beach house for a night or 2, which will be a nice break from Nursing Home visits.

    Jenny,
    I love how you kept the white to make the card classy- the embossed background is fabulous and the bow a great finishing touch with its color going so well with the colors of the flowers. Thanks for sharing and playing along;)
