A 'Rusty' Happy Birthday

It's our Colour Week at Just Us Girls
and our Host Bobby has chosen one that
screamed Mixed Media to me.
See what I mean!


I knew cogs had to have a place here and there are plenty.
The background was inked up umteen times with
the colours above. The cogs were also but with so many
different products giving them a very effective result.
Apart from the cogs I added some plaster's tape
to the bottom..
My Happy Birthday is from Happy Little Stampers.
Attached to navy card stock and onto brown base.
I really enjoyed making this and finished with
extremely colourful fingers. 

Check out what our Guest Cornelia and the Team created.
I'm looking forward to seeing how you 
choose to use these super colours in our Gallery.
You could be our Chic of the Week and in the running for
Guest Designer with us in June.

Will pop this over to the Watercooler Challenge
for their AG with a masculine twist.


Thanks for  dropping in

  15. I'm glad you enjoyed my choice of colors, Ina. You do such a fantastic job with Mixed Media and this card is one of my favorites of yours. I love the cogs. Are they paper? MDF? Inquiring minds want to know.
