Compendium of Curiosities Challenge # 30

As they say, "Time Flys when your Having Fun"
Are we really up to week 30??

It doesn't seem possible.... This weeks Linda over at Studio L3 challenged us with the Altered Metal Technique by Tim Holtz.

As I often do I used the challenge to make a card. This time a Birthday Card which represents a Milestone

  6. Fantastic card, Stephen! That a charm is an absolutely brilliant piece for a birthday card, and you altered it perfectly. I love the cool, masculine look of this piece-- the embossing is great, and the way you layered the colors together is ingenious. Great job!
