I made this A5 Good Luck/New Job card today using Cardz 4 Men cd from Jem's Designs. The base card is cream linen card stock and I printed a background from the cd onto Super Smooth white card. I then tore this and attached to the base card. Then, using Distress Ink - Tea Dye - I aged the edges of the torn element and also the plain section of the base card. I also printed out a tag from the cd to which I added my own text using MCS graphics programme, and then distressed around the edges of this before attaching a piece of raffia as a label tie and gold card candy as a brad. The main image is printed from the pyramage section of the cd and layered and matted on to a piece of dark brown leather effect card stock. I used Metallic Rub-Ons - Gold and Copper - to highlight some areas of the clocks and watch faces and added a Tim Holtz metal embellishment, gold peel off chain borders and peel off waste to finish this design
This is such a useful cd set, and what's more, it's on sale from http://www.jemsdesigns.co.uk/ for only £10 instead of £30! I love a bargain.
I hope you like this and thank you for visiting...you are always welcome!

Sheenagh I love your card. I have just got these CD's myself not realising there were 3 so I am very very happy. I also bought Fairy Woods and the Transparage collection too. I can't wait to play as they will work with so many of my ideas using Digi's too.
