Rusty Hinges Card

Well, I made up my mind today that I just needed to jump in and create something. I had a lot of fun creating the "rusty" hinges for this card! I cut the hinges using Fabulous Finds from brown textured cardstock. Then I inked them with Sepia Ink. Once the ink dried, I added Tim Holtz new Distress Stickles in a couple of colors to give them a metallic look and distressed the brads to match. They pretty much look like rusty hinges. The image is by a Carmel, California artist named Lynn Lupetti. I love her work! This one is called "The Dragon Tamer". Don't know if this really got me out of the slump, but it felt good to at least do something!!!
